A shocking article that rings true to our work: we're seeing growing numbers of care worker facing homelessness and severe poverty, trapped on very low wages with no recourse to public funds.

Rwanda's not the only migration story out today. Our new briefing examines migrant deprivation in the UK and the no recourse to public funds (NRPF) condition. It shows that in just two years, the number of migrants with NRPF has increased by 1 million🧵 migrationobservatory.ox.ac.uk/resources/brie…
⚠Hundreds of thousands of migrant families are blocked out of crucial childcare support. We wrote to Education Secretary @GillianKeegan alongside 20 other orgs, including @savechildrenuk and @jrf_uk, calling for #ChildcareForAll now. independent.co.uk/news/uk/charit…
We're working with a woman sleeping in the corridor of her abusive ex-partner's flat. She's looking after three children including a newborn. @yourcroydon have refused to support under s.17, saying this situation is acceptable. NRPF means she has no other options.

We all deserve to be with family, but yesterday the Gov outlined plans to force care workers to choose work or family. This will tear our communities apart, devastate our healthcare sector & treats migrant workers as disposable. ✊🏽We are not disposable. Drop this cruel plan now.
Today in Parliament we have laid an order to ban overseas care workers from bringing dependants. This is just one part of our plan to deliver the biggest-ever cut in migration 👇
"Ultimately NRPF needs to be scrapped in its entirety, for everybody. Section 17 is a valuable safety net, but it should not be used to justify the policy landscape and make NRPF more palatable." @Project17UK @ShadowsNRPF

🚨 Big news!🚨 High Court grants permission in test case challenging the lack of legal aid for school exclusion appeals. 2 day final hearing in March 2024. Watch this space! Great team work @CCLCUK, GCC and the @EHRC #SchoolInclusionProject

Families living on low incomes subject to the #NRPF condition (effectively cut off from the welfare safety net) have struggled enormously to make ends meet over the last few years with no extra help with the #costofliving. Here’s what today’s #AutumnStatement will do for them🧵
🚨#Rwanda policy found unlawful🚨 This was a policy which, legality aside, should never have even been suggested, let alone going this far. This must be the end of policies which put vulnerable people at more risk, and in more fear. We need policies which focus on protection.
Great result on Friday in another strategic 'no recourse to public funds' (NRPF) litigation. The SSHD conceded that barring our destitute client and her 1 year old baby from welfare benefits was unlawful & the NRPF condition was lifted from the Claimant's leave to remain. 1/4
