Events
Refugee and Migrant Justice is taking part in the 2009 London Legal Support Trust Walk - we hope to raise plenty of funds for our vital legal work. The LLST Walk is a 10km walk in central London to raise funds for legally aided charities; we are taking part to raise funds for our vital work. Sponsor our team of walkers here .

The Refugee Legal Centre relaunched itself on March 10th 2009 as Refugee and Migrant Justice (RMJ) at a reception at the House of Lords. Speakers at the reception included Dame Anne Owers, HM Inspector of Prisons, and Natasha Walter, journalist, author of Motherland , and Coordinator of Women for Refugee Women. RMJ also launched their new document, “Does Every Child Matter? Children seeking asylum in Britain,” an examination of the experiences of asylum seeking children in Britain under the new UKBA Code. More information can be found on our Policy and Research page.

Fundraising
RMJ is to receive a substantial grant from the Baring Foundation for a partnership project in conjunction with the Immigration Advisory Service and Asylum Aid to undertake an important piece of research into the cost of quality in legal services for asylum seekers and some migrants. It is hoped that the research will be completed within the year.

RMJ have also received commitments to donations of over £50,000 from private donors this year.  If you would like to help us continue our important work, please contact Kathleen Commons on , or for more information.
