Breaking the Chains is a partnership project dedicated to improving outcomes for children and young people seeking asylum in the UK.

The project works with some of the most marginalised children and young people in the asylum system, providing them with high quality casework while listening to and amplifying their voices to share our learning about how best to protect this vulnerable group. The project also offers a chance to think strategically about the issues faced by these children and young people, and to harness their energy and talent to provide peer support within and across communities.

Further information about venue and programme will be provided closer to the date.

Please email deboraht@islingtonlaw.org.uk with any queries.
