They call themselves the Chickpea sisters and they come from Libya, Iraq, Eritrea, Somalia and other countries ridden with violence. 

The group met at a southwest London community centre a few years ago, started cooking together and are now a growing business. 

Their project is proving that starting a new business might be the way forward for migrants and refugees.
