Over 1,500 schools across the UK are within walking distance of a migrant hotel, according to a new report by The Women’s Safety Initiative (WSI).
A study shows that 1,539 schools sit within a 20-minute walk of asylum accommodations while 393 are within just 10 minutes.
Jess Gill, Founder and Director of the WSI, said: “They tell us about men loitering outside schools, filming children, and creating an atmosphere of fear.
“This fear is not unjustified: the crime figures linked to migrant hotels are shocking, with hundreds of serious offences committed by migrants housed in taxpayer-funded hotels, including rape and sexual assault.”
