What we do

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

 

 

The UK Lesbian & Gay Immigration Group (UKLGIG) supports LGBTQI+ people through the asylum and immigration system. Our vision is a world where there is equality, dignity, respect and safety for all people in the expression of their sexual or gender identity.

We provide psychosocial and emotional support for LGBTQI+ people seeking asylum to help improve their confidence and self-esteem and reduce isolation. We also provide legal information and advice. In addition, we campaign for improved treatment of people seeking asylum.

We also provide legal advice and information to LGBTQI+ people seeking to live in the UK with their partners via our website, an online forum and a monthly meeting.


Our asylum related activities include:

Supporting and advising LGBTQI+ people seeking asylum: providing emotional support and legal advice, including to people held in detention centres, and making referrals to solicitors.

Research & policy: working to ensure LGBTQI+ people are treated fairly and with dignity in the asylum and immigration system. See publications for examples of our work.

Training & information: providing training and information on LGBTQI+ asylum issues.
