Migration 
The Bevan Foundation’s new six-part report series looks to improve legal advice and related services for people migrating to Wales.
The immigration legal services crisis in the UK is most often spoken about from the perspective of administration, legal providers or politics. The Bevan Foundation’s report series considers the lived experiences at the heart of the crisis, and explores the impacts of declining immigration legal provision on people who depend on getting timely and fair access to justice.
The Bevan Foundation, working with frontline partners, has carried out in-depth interviews and group discussions with nearly 60 people who have moved to Wales from abroad. The editions in this series look in depth at the main themes emerging from the study’s findings. The themes are: Barriers to Access, Client Care, Rights, Interpreters, and Impacts.
We have supported our Experts by Experience working group to review the research findings and develop their own recommendations for improving access to justice for people seeking sanctuary in Wales. Their report is published as Appendix A to this series.
We will hold a webinar to share the study’s findings on Wednesday 26th February at 13:00-13:45.
