Family should never be out of reach.
Our Young Leaders share what family means to them, and why this issue is deeply personal.

Reform UK has turned one of the deadliest realities facing people seeking safety into a game.
At a time when lives are already being lost, we cannot allow dehumanising narratives to become normalised.

A masked minority don’t speak for us.
This weekend, we saw racism and intimidation directed at people seeking safety.
Our government must reject division and choose dignity: protect family reunion and create safe routes.
Seeking safety is not a crime. There is no place for hate.

One year ago, Refugee Family Reunion was suspended. One year on, families are still waiting for a safe way to be together again.

A few weeks ago, the High Court ruled that the Government’s suspension of refugee family reunion was lawful, leaving families separated and a vital safe route closed.
But this fight isn’t over. We believe there are strong grounds to challenge that decision.

BREAKING: New figures reveal that of 304 people whose age was disputed under the UK-France deal, 94 — almost one in three — were later found to be children, according to the Home Office’s own data.

Last week, Liban* walked through the arrivals gate in the UK to find his uncle waiting for him.
Liban was only a child when he was forced to flee Somalia after being abducted from school by an armed group. He escaped, surviving a gunshot wound as he ran for his life.

Two years ago, racist violence spread across towns and cities across the UK. Asylum accommodation was attacked, communities were terrorised and people were targeted because of who they were or where they came from.

Andy Burnham is right about one thing: safe routes are part of the solution.
For years, we've heard governments promise that tougher enforcement alone would stop dangerous Channel crossings. It hasn't.

Four people died trying to cross the Channel last night.
With family reunion suspended and almost no safe routes for people fleeing conflict, many are left with no choice but to risk dangerous journeys.
The new Prime Minister must change course: safe routes save lives.

Hey Andy Burnham!
A new Prime Minister means a chance to choose a different path. For too long, refugees have been used as political scapegoats while hostile rhetoric has divided communities & harmful policies have made it harder for people seeking safety to rebuild their lives.

With the final to come this weekend, players who took part in this World Cup were born into displacement.
Behind some of football’s biggest names are stories of families forced to flee. But most refugees won’t become professional footballers—and they shouldn’t have to in order to deserve safety.

Two years ago today, the Rwanda scheme was scrapped.
It proved harmful policies can be challenged and defeated.
But the fight isn’t over. Refugees still face barriers, families remain separated, and safe routes are far too limited.

The High Court has ruled the Government’s suspension of Refugee Family Reunion is lawful. This is devastating.
More children will remain separated from their parents, and more families left waiting to be reunited.
Thank you to all who supported this legal challenge. Refugee families deserve better

Today, as people come together to celebrate Pride, we stand in solidarity with LGBTQ+ people seeking safety around the world.
Many are forced to flee persecution, criminalisation and violence simply for being who they are. Yet without safe routes, many are left with impossible choices.

BREAKING: A new immigration Bill was introduced this week and points to a grim direction for refugees.
Behind the headlines: familiar hostility, tighter restrictions.
As talk turns to football “coming home”, we’re thinking of those pushed further from safety and family.

Keir Starmer's resignation marks the end of a government that promised a new approach to asylum.
Initially, some of the most harmful policies of the previous government were abandoned. But the wider shift many refugees had hoped for never came.

After we asked supporters to send messages to families separated by war and persecution, we received hundreds of responses in just a few days.
This is who we are.
Today, on World Refugee Day, we're sharing some of those messages. Because community is stronger than hate. 🧡

The UK has committed £660 million to tougher border enforcement. Under that deal, specialist French police units deployed on the Channel coast can use crowd-control tactics including water cannon, tear gas and batons.
It is cruel, inhumane and beneath the values we should uphold.

Sometimes, it looks like finally being together again.

More than 600 people lost their lives in the Pylos shipwreck while trying to reach safety in Europe.
