Many asylum seekers are facing destitution and homelessness due to gaps in the home office support system. However, the ‘no recourse to public funds’ restriction that people are under prevents them from accessing long-term move-on options. A lack of stable, secure housing impacts people’s health and wellbeing. A lack of housing stability and adequate legal representation also limits people’s options to find a long-term remedy to their situation. To resolve these issues, CARAG will run a housing project, providing stable accommodation and access to good legal support. As a membership organisation made up of people with experience of the asylum and immigration system, we have in-depth knowledge and awareness of the needs of our community. Our Right to a Home project received funding from mi-friendly cities in March 2019 to explore models and build capacity around setting up a housing project. As a result we have worked on understanding the needs of our community and engaging with similar projects around the UK to explore best practice and business models. We therefore believe we are well-placed to run this project.
