Asylum Matters is a charity that works in partnership locally and nationally to improve the lives of refugees and people seeking asylum through social and political change. By mobilising and coordinating local, regional and national advocacy work, we aim to increase the impact of campaigns to secure improvements to asylum policy and practice.
We are based in the North West, West Midlands, Yorkshire and Humber, North East and Wales, as well as London, but we work with partners across the whole of the UK. Learn more about us, how we work with partners and how you can get involved.
