If you haven’t already, there’s still time to register for the launch of our #InvestingInSafety model resources 👇🏾👇🏾
‼️ Together with 250 orgs, we have written to Rishi Sunak to express our outrage at the passage of the cruel Rwanda Bill.
The passage of the Bill puts the UK’s commitment to human rights into question and exposes vulnerable migrants to serious risk.
We continue to oppose it. ✊
The Victims and Prisoners Bill is a rare opportunity for the govt to extend vital protections to migrant victims with NRPF. A law with victims at its heart cannot leave some of the most vulnerable behind.
Peers must amplify this in debates around the Bill in the House of Lords.
Join us for the launch of our #InvestingInSafety model resources tomorrow, 24th April, 1-2:30pm to find out more.

The House of Lords will continue to debate the Victims and Prisoners Bill tomorrow.
We urge Peers to reject the two-tier discriminatory system that denies protection to migrant victim-survivors with NRPF and ensure the Bill includes support for them.
#SupportMigrantVictims
Victim-survivors need both status & support to be safe and report abuse
As the Victims and Prisoners Bill is debated in the House of Lords, we urge Peers to advocate that support should be provided to all victim-survivors regardless of immigration status
#SupportMigrantVictims
On Wednesday the 24th, we launch our #InvestingInSafety resources that lay out a strong financial case for investing in by & for services supporting victim-survivors with NRPF.
Hope you're as excited as we are to hear more from our speakers.
