About Us
London Advocacy (LA) provides a range of services to support refugees and asylum seekers including journalists, academics, lawyers, artists and intellectuals who are exiled, persecuted or face the risk of persecution in their home countries. London Advocacy is also working to inform and educate the public on issues around human right abuses, immigration and asylum. We are encouraging the public to look differently at refugees and asylum seekers and to see the positive contribution they make to our society.
LA is not a law firm. We do not give legal advice. LA employs a network of professionals, lawyers, academics, politicians and journalists to formulate the best possible legal and communication strategies for its clients.


Our Mission
Our mission is to provide economic and social resources to refugees and immigrants, expand rights to transform their’ lives, and more importantly improve public attitudes toward them for the better.
Within the constraint of resources, and subject to any eligibility criteria for a specific service, LA services are available to all refugees, people claiming asylum and vulnerable Communities.
Our work on sector capacity building, refugee integration and education of the general public about refugee issues benefit the whole community by supporting community cohesion. Our work on policy, legislation and advocacy advances human rights and access to employment, education, and combats poverty.
LA's charitable purpose works towards those targets. Through a mixture of fundraising, research, public and educational events along with support from local and international media, LA continues to promote public awareness in the UK and internationally.


Our Vision
Every person settling in foreign land deserves a dignified treatment and a minimum support to live safe and fulfilling his/her lives.
