Take action on behalf of refugees & asylum seekers

Join the campaign for amendments to the Nationality and Borders Bill

Restore has been involved with the Together with Refugees coalition since summer 2021, working with over 300 other organisations to raise awareness about the Bill and the impact it will have on refugees and asylum seekers.

There are 2 key amendments we would like to see:

• The removal of Clause 11 which would permit the Home Office to treat refugees differently based on how they arrived here, instead of their need for protection.
•  The introduction of a new and safe route by setting an ambitious but deliverable target to resettle 10,000 of the world’s most vulnerable refugees a year.

We send out updates in our mailings.  For more information please see the Together With Refugees website

Lift the Ban campaign

In addition to Restore’s relational work to welcome and integrate refugees and asylum seekers, Restore also works for change to improve the systems and structures that impinge on the lives on refugees and asylum seekers. Restore has signed up as a partner in the Lift the Ban campaign which is lobbying the government to change their policy and allow asylum seekers to work after they have been in the asylum process for 6 months. Asylum Matters and Refugee Action are leading the campaign.
