The e-Visa scheme puts migrants at risk of status errors. “We need more transparency from the Home Office about how visas will generate someone’s status, what data is held about them and where, and what mitigations are in place if the system fails.” swlondoner.co.uk/news/hammersmi…

This summer’s racist riots were the clear outcome of intensifying Islamophobia in the UK. Our new report shows that Islamophobia is growing, and highlights its structural nature across British society. Read it here 👉 ow.ly/EUa450U7MoO

As our Deputy Director Leyla Williams told the South West Londoner, we’re extremely concerned that the UK government's eVisa scheme may leave thousands unable to prove their immigration status. “The scheme has been poorly advertised and rushed through.” swlondoner.co.uk/news/hammersmi…

Our big teaching swap! Londoners speak 300+ languages - we should celebrate this. We've started an experiment: Our usual teachers teach English - and now our refugee community members teach Arabic, Turkish, Ukrainian, Farsi, Creole to their teachers... westlondonwelcome.com/the-big-teachi…

Asylum stats show the impact of the new government unblocking the asylum system. More initial interviews took place in both August & September than during the last government's backlog clearance. In June there were 1,157 interviews - August there were 10,327 and September 11,540.

More than 150,000 children in England live in temporary accommodation - and we know from our casework that many of those are refugee children whom this government have granted protection to. How can a family build a new life with no stability, without even a way to cook?

We at West London Welcome, along with 700 others supporting refugees in the UK, call on the government to resume Syrian asylum claim processing. In our community we work with Syrians who are victims of torture and persection. Syria is in chaos and clearly remains unsafe.
