Migrant Help 🧡
@migranthelp
Here at Migrant Help, we exist to protect people affected by displacement and exploitation, helping them thrive as individuals and recover from their trauma.
🎉 Huge congratulations to our Director of People & Culture, Fiona Stephens, who has been recognised in HR Magazine's Top 30 Most Influential HR Practitioners 2026.
At Migrant Help, we’re committed not only to supporting vulnerable adults and people who have experienced exploitation, but also to equipping everyone with the knowledge needed to identify and prevent it.

July is Disability Pride Month – a time to celebrate disability as a natural part of human diversity, challenge assumptions about what disability looks like, and reflect on how we can create workplaces where everyone feels safe to be themselves.
Throughout your asylum process you have the right to be treated with dignity, respect and fairness. If this isn’t happening, please reach out to us and we’ll do what we can to help. Remember, asking for help isn’t a burden. It’s exactly what we’re here for.
Every person deserves safety and dignity. You can make a difference by leaving a legacy of welcome, safety and hope. A gift in your Will ensures refugees and survivors of modern slavery are never left to face crisis alone.
⚽ More than a football tournament. Hosted by Pitch 2 Progress, the Beyond Borders World Cup brought people together for a day of football, friendship and community. We were proud to support the event alongside other local partners.
Didn't get a place in the London Marathon ballot? 💜 Don't worry — you can still make your miles matter with Migrant Help.
Together with Just Good Work, we’ve developed a portal for people seeking asylum, refugees, and migrant workers to learn about work and life in the UK. It now supports 11 languages, making it even more accessible for those who need it most.
Yesterday’s Building Bridges conference brought together people from across sectors to explore trauma-informed support, trust, connection and the power of challenging harmful narratives.
Want to run one of the UK's favourite 26.2-milers? We've got you covered with exclusive charity places 🏃🎉
We support you in many practical ways. We help you apply for asylum support, including housing and financial assistance. If you’re having problems with your accommodation or payment card, we can report them and help get them resolved.

Refugee Week may last seven days, but the movement for change continues all year round.
Yesterday, we held a BBQ in Dunchurch for Refugee Week, bringing smiles to so many families’ faces. There were games, bubbles, dancing, and plenty of fun and laughter throughout the day.
Next up in our exploration of courage through storytelling is ‘Quiet Courage’ by Meiko.
We’re continuing our Refugee Week poetry series today with another moving reflection on courage. Here is ‘Lo que sostiene todo / What Holds Everything’ by Angie, which she recites in her mother tongue.
This #RefugeeWeek, we stand #WithRefugees 🧡 This Refugee Week, we're sharing courage through storytelling. Follow us this week for poems on the theme of courage written by people seeking sanctuary and Migrant Help colleagues. Join us. #Courage
Today marks the first day of Refugee Week 2026 — the world’s largest arts and culture festival celebrating the contributions, creativity, and resilience of refugees and people seeking sanctuary.
Some amazing photos of one of our fundraisers, Dan, sporting his new cycling jersey! A massive shout-out and thank you to Dan, who is taking part in the London to Brighton bike ride on 21 June. So far, he has raised over £380, and we couldn’t be prouder or more grateful.
