Since the opening of the Eurotunnel in 1997, the amount of people fleeing conflicts and poverty trying to look for a future in Great Britain has become bigger and bigger and it is concentrated on the territory of Pas de Calais. After months in which the streets of Calais were packed with refugees, the French government has decided to create a reception camp to improve this situation of poverty. In Sangatte one only needs to turn up to get three meals a day, hygienic facilities, clothes and a bed. Along the paths of clandestine, the existence of Sangatte has soon become famous, and more and more people have chosen to exploit it as a place to stop while waiting to cross the Channel.
