Here at Praxis, we support people marginalised by hostile immigration policies with legal advice and community support. We see every day how cruel and costly immigration rules push people into poverty, debt, and destitution. This is no coincidence – the hostile environment makes people homeless. Here’s how…

On 4th October, this Government brought in a massive increase in the fees that thousands of people have to pay to stay in the UK – with plans to raise other fees by a whopping 66% later in the year too. Email your MP now to ask them to act urgently to stop the visa fee rises.

Thousands more refugees are facing homelessness after a Home Office eviction policy change. That’s why we joined over 140 organisations, including Refugee Council, Crisis UK, Shelter, to call on this Government to abandon this policy change.

Francisca and Chloe are immigration advisers at Praxis. For years they have been supporting people to access the guidance, advice and support they need to leave destitution and crisis. Today they talk to us about the devastating impact of immigration policies and Home Office fees pushing people into poverty.
