Our mission is to provide support and advice for local migrants and refugees in Waltham Forest. We also advocate and campaign for the rights of migrants and refugees in the UK.

Our weekly Support Centre in Blackhorse Road offers our migrant visitors free advice on immigration, accommodation and welfare issues, as well as signposting to organisations that can help with other issues. We also provide a warm welcome, tea and biscuits, and opportunities to socialise and practise speaking English.

Our main aims are:

Supporting migrants

Promoting integration

Challenging negativity

We’re in Westfield Stratford City today until Sunday - raising awareness about the work we do and raising funds for our weekly Support Centre. Mayor Sadiq Khan says ‘London is for Everyone’. But our friends seeking asylum can’t afford bus travel! Take a read of our latest newsletter: Over 400 asylum seeking people have suddenly and unexpectedly been told they will be evicted from the hotel in Waltham Forest where they’ve lived for up to two years. Here is the latest instalment of our revived monthly newsletter - updates, news and events. Another Friday at our weekly drop-in Support Centre! We are joining with @migrantvoice and other organisations on the Day of #ActionOnVisas to call on the government to REDUCE extortionate visa costs, and to raise public awareness about the impact they have on people's lives. Waltham Forest Migrant Action has joined the Refugee Council and other migrant and refugee rights organisations to urge the UK government to provide safe passage for those in need of safety from the violence in Palestine and Israel. We are recruiting for new TRUSTEES!
