- Co-producing accessible resources and information tools — including our migrant worker information site — to support migrant workers to understand their rights and advocate for themselves.
- Delivering training and legal education to frontline charities, statutory agencies, and community organisations to better understand labour migration systems and engage meaningfully with people with lived experience.
- Contributing to research projects and collaborating with academics to improve understanding of the structural issues affecting migrant workers.
- Influencing policy and practice through government consultation responses, engagement with MPs, and meetings with statutory and enforcement agencies.

Our work includes:
- Providing advocacy and representation for migrant workers in workplace processes, including disciplinary, grievance, and other employment-related hearings.
- Delivering immigration and employment advice through qualified legal partners.
