One of the UK’s largest legal advice centres, run by the School of Law at Liverpool John Moores University has invested £2.6 million in premises in Liverpool. LJMU partnered with a grassroots organisation, Liverpool Advocates for Windrush to offer Windrush communities in the North West of England free legal advice.
A spokesperson for LAFW said: “Windrush is a British scandal and needs to be rectified by British society. These people are still facing grave uncertainties because of historic pieces of immigration legislation enacted to affect minorities. Established in 2023, LAFW is a voluntary organisation working to address injustices caused by ’hostile’ government policies, various government acts of law since 2006, and later accelerated by then Home Secretary Theresa May. In 2012, then-Home Secretary Theresa May said: "The aim is to create, here in Britain, a really hostile environment for illegal immigrants".
The School of Law will focus their guidance on legal status, compensation claims, application processing for individuals in the UK and abroad, and trauma informed care, due to many having suffered psychologically, from the uncertainties of their status, losing their homes, jobs and access to health care.
