We help refugees and migrants feel safe, welcome and able to get on with their lives
We deliver frontline services in London and Essex, and national campaigns. What started as one person giving legal advice in an East London church hall has grown into one of the UK’s leading legal action charities. We directly support over 4,000 refugees and migrants each year, and our national campaigns fight for a fairer system.
Immigration advice
We offer IAA Level 3-accredited immigration advice, helping asylum seekers, refugees, and vulnerable migrants with applications such as renewals, citizenship, and E-visas. While most of our services are free, capacity is often limited, we therefore offer a low-fee service for returning clients for certain applications.
For rough sleepers
For asylum seekers and refugee family members
For people with leave to remain
For undocumented migrants
Holistic Support
Support for destitute refugees and migrants
We work to help newly granted refugees and asylum seekers to secure or improve access to accommodation that they are entitled to, financial support, healthcare and other essential services. Our community hub and food bank provides support, community and classes to eligible clients.
Campaigning to change unfair legal systems
We are active campaigners, centring our clients' experiences to challenge and influence policies that harm refugee and migrant communities.

Indefinite Leave to Remain should be affordable for everyone. Let’s change the rules
Right now, many migrants, including children and young people, who’ve lived in the UK for decades are being locked out of permanent residency simply because they can’t afford it. We’re asking for a fee waiver for people who simply can’t afford this cost.
Our Reports
Drawing on our frontline experience and legal expertise, our reports highlight the problems with our immigration system to policy makers, politicians and the general public.
