🌞 The BIG Summer Fundraiser is here! 🌞 This summer, we’re raising funds to Improve Migrants’ Access to Legal Representation—because everyone deserves safety, justice, and a fair chance. Legal advice is increasingly out of reach for many migrants. At Hackney Migrant Centre, we offer free, expert support to those who need it most. But we can’t do it without you. Over the next few months, we’ll be sharing more about our work, launching new merch, and hosting community events—all to bring our community closer and raise vital funds to continue this work. 💛 Stand in solidarity. Support our fundraiser. Help transform lives. 👉 To donate, head to the link in our bio. #SupportMigrants #AccessToJustice #HackneyMigrantCentre #BigSummerFundraiser #SolidarityInAction

The new UK–France “one-in, one-out” pilot does nothing to make people safer. Instead, it means more police, more drones, and more danger. 🚨 Tactics like slashing boats are not only inhumane, they fail to address why people are crossing in the first place. What we need are: 🛤️ Safe routes for asylum seekers 🌍 Policies that acknowledge the UK’s role in global conflicts and colonial legacy ⚖️ A plan that guarantees dignity, safety, and justice It’s time for real solutions — not more hostility. ✊ #RefugeesWelcome #SafeRoutesNow #MigrantJustice

A year after last summer’s wave of far-right protests, we’re forced to raise our voices again. From Epping to Northern Ireland, anti-migrant riots and racialised violence are spreading — fuelled by toxic rhetoric, divisive policies, and a politics of fear. At Hackney Migrant Centre, We respond with solidarity, support, and community. 🖤 Read our full statement in our website! To support our work, you can donate via our crowdfunder

The legal aid crisis is deepening — and migrants are being left without vital legal support. With fewer law firms taking on immigration cases, local migrant centres like ours are stepping in to fill the gap. But we can’t do it alone. We’re crowdfunding to continue providing free, expert casework support to those who need it most. 📢 Help us stand up for justice — donate, share, and spread the word. #legalaidcrisis #accesstojustice #supportmigrants #migrantrights #fundthefrontline

Today, on World Day Against Trafficking in Persons, we stand in solidarity with survivors and those still trapped in exploitation. Human trafficking is a hidden crime that destroys lives. Asylum seekers and migrants are especially at risk, often targeted by traffickers when they are most vulnerable. Creating safe and legal asylum routes is essential to reducing the risk of trafficking for those seeking a better future. At Hackney Migrant Centre, we provide free legal advice to help people regularise their status and understand their rights. By supporting people to navigate the legal system, we reduce the risk of them being forced into dangerous situations or targeted by those seeking to take advantage of their circumstances. You can support our work by sharing our crowdfunder or donating. Every little helps ❤️ Link in Bio!

🔔 It’s #SmallCharityWeek — a time to celebrate the vital work of small, grassroots organisations like Hackney Migrant Centre 🙌 Small charities punch well above their weight — offering personalised, community-driven support, often with minimal resources. From legal aid to mental health, they fill critical gaps that larger systems miss 🛠️✨ But they face real challenges: ⚠️ Limited funding 🕒 Understaffed teams 📣 Low visibility 🌻 This summer, Hackney Migrant Centre is fundraising to support migrants’ access to life-changing legal services 🧑‍⚖️✊ 👉 Every donation helps defend rights, protect futures, and give people the support they need to rebuild their lives. 🧡 If you’re able to, please consider donating to HMC via the link below, which can also be found in the bio. /p/hmcsummer
