What we do
Our vision
Is for an immigration system in which people can access justice fairly and equally without being harmed.
Our mission
Is to bring together people and organisations to transform the immigration system. Through grant-making and collaboration, we will connect lived experience, front-line immigration advice and influencing strategies to create lasting change.
Our approach
We are committed to using a different approach to making long-term impact. In line with our values, we will bring together organisations across the UK to use their collective power to leverage change in the immigration system, and to influence how the sector operates and how immigration advice is funded. Justice Together is rooted in the belief that a better coordinated and more strategic approach that is driven by lived experience will help address systemic challenges. We are committed to contributing towards racial justice and to supporting an equitable involvement and leadership of people with lived experience of the immigration system.

Our theory of change
Our values
Equity and human rights: The overarching value of the initiative is everybody’s right to access justice fairly and equally.
Collaboration: The essence of the initiative is partnership and collaboration, with lived experience of the immigration system at its heart, bringing people together to build power and transform how we work and what we can achieve.
Inclusion: We value the agency and skills of people who migrate to the UK, small community led grassroots organisations, larger national organisations, specialist advice providers, and legal firms. We recognise the importance of listening and working together to affect change.
Racial Justice: We recognise the systemic racism in the immigration system. To tackle and dismantle racism we aim to embed an anti-racist approach throughout our work and support those we work with to do the same. We are committed to staying the course and addressing difficult questions.
Learning: We value helping people and organisations share learning, being open and transparent, and reflecting on learning internally so that we are responsive and adaptable in our approach.
Trust: We trust the organisations and people we partner with and commit to valuing their expertise. We want to stand in solidarity with organisations and recognise that change takes time.
Courage: We will be courageous and ambitious in our approach, committing to tackling the complex and entrenched problems and exploring new ways of approaching them.
