A couple of months ago we visited the team at Greater Manchester Immigration Aid Unit (GMIAU). This incredible group of people provide free immigration legal advice, representation and support services to people in need across the North West of England. We previously supported GMIAU with a grant. This grant was used to give legal advice to people with no recourse to public funds who were staying in A Bed Every Night accommodation. Everybody deserves fair legal support. Thanks to donations from you we were able to help ensure this happened. Our grants are provided to ensure people at risk of experiencing homelessness or experiencing homelessness are provided full wrap-around support. But don't take our word for it, hear from Yamusu who now works at GMIAU. Help us continue this vital support. Donate today: https://buff.ly/3uZMvs8
