Migrant victim-survivors with NRPF face a stark choice between domestic abuse and destitution. No one should be forced to make this choice.
The Victims and Prisoners Bill is a rare opportunity to extend protection to migrant victims. It must not be lost. #SupportMigrantVictims
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
The time for action is now! We echo Southall Black Sisters’ call for MPs to back Sarah Champion’s amendment so that all victims of abuse have access to vital services regardless of their immigration status. #SupportMigrantVictims

Victims of abuse with NRPF are victims first & foremost. Southall Black Sisters has repeatedly advocated for the combined model of DDVC/DVILR to be extended to all victims of abuse without discrimination. We support this & urge govt to consider urgent reform. #SupportMigrantVictims Advocacy After Fatal Domestic Abuse

Migrant women are routinely denied their rights, support and justice. I support Southall Black Sisters #SupportMigrantVictims campaign and urge MPs to back Sarah Champion amendment to the #VictimsBill so domestic abuse victims with No Recourse to Public Funds can access critical services.
We support Southall Black Sisters’ campaign to have the No Recourse to Public Funds condition lifted for migrant victims of abuse.
Join us by writing to your MPs with encouragement to support Sarah Champion’s amendment to the Victims and Prisoners Bill.
