This year we’ve provided free legal advice to almost 3,000 people across London. That means putting in applications, getting people off the streets, supporting people seeking asylum in hotels and so much more. We’re one of the largest provider of free immigration advice in London.

We’ve distributed almost 1,500 copies of A Migrant’s Guide to the Praxis community, London Councils, and other organisations supporting migrants and refugees.

The Guide helps you access services, build community, and take care of yourself before and after securing immigration status. It has been co-produced by people who have lived experience of navigating the complex immigration system in the UK. Knowledge is power!

In 2025 we’ve secured almost £900,000 in financial assistance for families and individuals in urgent need.

We appealed the initial refusal from the Home Office and fellow GIANTS members went along to the hearing to support him and show their solidarity.

In the last year, over 31,000 campaign actions have been taken by people across the UK standing up for migrants and refugees. That means thousands of petition signatures, emails sent to MPs and educational resources downloaded.
