Story
Nearly half of all refugees are children and more than ever before are unaccompanied, often embarking on long and dangerous journeys to flee persecution and be reunited with their families. We believe that children should not have to risk their lives to access their right to protection. We aim to open and strengthen safe and legal routes to sanctuary for refugees, then support their first steps to rebuilding their lives. Through strategic litigation and political advocacy, we also push for policy change to ensure that more children can travel to safety, so our work has an impact much greater than just those cases we directly work on. More than 1,700 children have travelled through routes we have helped to open since we began work in 2015.
The support of community groups, Refugee Welcome groups and individuals makes our work possible, and any money raised really will help us to bring more children to safety.
