    Situation

    Young people seeking asylum in the UK frequently struggle to access information about the asylum process, to obtain quality advice in a way they can understand, and to have their voice heard when situations become dangerous for them. Asylum seekers who have come to the UK as minors are often unprepared for the challenges of UK immigration and keeping a roof over their head when they turn 18. Mental and physical health issues can escalate for these young people if not addressed early.

    Solution

    Our team of 3 part time staff provide holistic support to young people with insecure immigration status, ensuring they receive good quality legal advice; that the local authority have the resources and knowledge to effectively support the young people. We will find interpreters to help them understand their rights and information in a way they can understand. We will help them access services appropriate to their age. We will ensure they have pastoral care.
