🚨Breaking: Russia's attack on #Ukraine kills 3, injures 11, and regions left without power. 600+ drones and 30+ missiles were launched, targeting civilians and energy infrastructure as temperatures drop to -8°C. 💙Our teams continue to provide emergency aid in mobile units and health facilities.

Violence, terror and death. That's the reality facing far too many people on the France/UK border. The UK needs to understand its role in funding this violence - so we can stop it. Tell your MP to back calls for an inquiry and an end to criminalisation: fightforasylumrights.org/write-to-you...

We stand with @bmj.com against proposed changes to the UK asylum system. As health workers, we must speak up when policies put people’s health at risk. Weakening refugee protections & fuelling divisive narratives won’t unite the country - it will only benefit those who profit from keeping us apart.

🚨People are dying in the hostile asylum system. Tragically, lives are being lost. But we don't know how many, and often, who. We must #KnowTheirNames. @asylummatters.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

We took the French government to court - and WE WON. But the work isn’t over. The court ruled that living conditions in Dunkirk camps are illegal and inhumane, ordering urgent action. But basic healthcare is still missing. We have appealed to push for its inclusion. @humansforrights.bsky.social

So the plan is to close one ‘fundamentally unsuitable’ barracks… only to open more? The same prison-like, isolating conditions that harm people’s health and wellbeing don't magically improve with a new postcode. #CloseTheCamps

Shipping people off to military land in the middle of nowhere does nothing to solve the problems in our asylum system. It's a completely failed experiment in expensive cruelty - it shouldn't be delayed, it should be cancelled completely.

WE DID IT! Together, we’ve raised over £18,000 to help people in need. Thanks to our wonderful supporters, we have exceeded our @biggive.bsky.social target. Because of you, we’re able to make accessible, equitable healthcare a reality for more people across the UK. Thank you! 💙

Only one day left to DOUBLE your donation! Thanks to your generosity, we've raised over £9,000 to help people access essential healthcare. Your support has been incredible, but we need one final push to reach our target. Support our humanitarian work here 💙➡️ tinyurl.com/4azeew8t

📢 We’re searching for our next Executive Director! This role will lead our strategy, programmes and operations, and be a powerful voice for universal access to healthcare. 🗓 Deadline: 15 December 2025 Full details on how to apply here ⬇️

Before, during, and after a crisis - we are there. When systems fail and people are left without healthcare - in conflict zones, asylum camps, after climate disasters, or on migration routes - we step in. For 45 years, we have stood with people in need, and we'll never turn away.

There have NEVER been ‘unrestricted’ taxis for asylum seekers. Travel to medical appointments has ALWAYS required Home Office approval. Many of the people we support miss urgent care because they can't get there. UK Gov must stop scapegoating people for its poor management ➡️ tinyurl.com/fzsk3aen

APPEAL ⬇️ UK mobile clinics, advice line & outreach ⬇️ For 7 days only, every £1 you donate will be matched, doubling your support for the 1.8 million people in the UK who are currently unable to access healthcare. We're so grateful for any support you can give.

“What we need is a competent and efficient refugee protection system that prioritises the health and wellbeing of people seeking safety and suitable housing for all who need it. This is what humanity looks like. This is what truly matters.“

🔴 The government's latest plans will push an already failing asylum system to new extremes of harm. The uncertainty, fear & instability the proposed changes create will only deepen the trauma faced by refugees & people seeking safety. Read our full statement ➡️ tinyurl.com/mphbj2m3

Dealing with sickness is scary enough as it is, nobody should feel like there will be consequences for seeking care. This is the sad reality of so many of our patients, stuck in our broken immigration and asylum systems.

Deeply concerned about the Home Secretary’s planned asylum overhaul. The current system needs fixing, but today's proposals will bring more chaos while failing to address the real issues. Refugees need safety & stability to rebuild their lives - these changes threaten both.

Forcing people into small cells in harsh, prison-like facilities and preventing proper support is cruel and totally unacceptable. We urge the government to change course on this deal and stop harming people who have already lived through war, torture and trauma.

It’s been 100 days since the UK-France deal came into force. Every day, our Casework Team sees the serious harm it’s causing to people seeking asylum. Beyond the government's failures, detention harms people — even more so for those fleeing war, torture and persecution.

This is cruelty by design. Military barracks are not safe or appropriate for people who have survived violence & persecution. Housing refugees in camps next to sounds of shooting and dogs is shamefully reckless. #CloseTheCamps @asylummatters.bsky.social @care4calais.org @refugeeaction.bsky.social 

Help us tackle health inequalities in the UK! We’re #hiring a Services Coordinator to run our London outreach clinics & national advice line, helping excluded communities access healthcare & know their rights. Apply by 8 Dec 2025 ➡️ tinyurl.com/a27pwf5h

People seeking asylum deserve care, not constant neglect. RAMFEL’s new report shows how poor nutrition and ignored medical needs are harming people's health - something we have seen again and again in our work at asylum hotels. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

🔴 In Haiti, 1.25 million people have been affected by #HurricaneMelissa. Our teams are on the ground, providing medical consultations, mental health support, water filters, and protection for women & girls at risk of gender-based violence ➡️ tinyurl.com/bde56ye4

🔴 Children in UK government care are vanishing into traffickers' hands. The Home Office is failing them, leaving children with no choice but to cross the Channel alone and putting them at serious risk of sexual and physical abuse. Safe asylum accommodation must be a priority.

What’s scarier than ghosts and vampires? This Halloween, the barriers blocking healthcare and safety are the real monsters. 🎃🧛‍♂️ 1️⃣ Borders devouring hope 2️⃣ Patients trapped in limbo 3️⃣ Fear feeding on minds 📊 Show results

🔴 #YEMEN: 18 million people are at risk of starvation. Just 10% of humanitarian needs are being met due to funding cuts and restrictions on aid workers. The international community must act now to save lives.

One year since the #Valencia floods. Last October, a year’s worth of rain fell in just 8 hours, destroying homes and claiming over 200 lives. Many families are still rebuilding - and we are there with them, providing mental health support and helping strengthen health systems.

Less than 24hrs after a damning Home Affairs report condemned military sites for asylum housing, Labour announces two more. Wethersfield must close. Napier must close. Cameron and Crowborough must not open. People seeking safety belong in communities, not camps.

Must the @ukhomeoffice.bsky.social keep making the same expensive and cruel mistakes? Our medical teams have responded many times to the harm caused by and in these camps. People are isolated from healthcare, community and the people they love, suffocating any sense of hope and safety.

⚠️ #BREAKING: A High Court ruling has temporarily protected a refugee from becoming homeless overnight. The 56-day move-on period must be reinstated so people have a chance to get back on their feet and rebuild their lives. @refugeecouncil.bsky.social

Safe housing = good public health, it's that simple. Instead, people are trapped in a cycle of poverty and illness, struggling to even access medical care. It is unacceptable for anyone to be living in these conditions, including people seeking asylum. #CloseTheCamps

When did people become bargaining chips? 🛑 The UK government should focus on fixing the NHS, tackling homelessness, and clearing the asylum backlog so that people seeking safety can rebuild their lives instead.

After two years of genocide, we welcome the ceasefire and hostage release. Hope has risen before, only to be crushed by renewed violence. This ceasefire must hold. Humanitarian aid must reach Palestinians NOW. We are ready at the border with a mobile clinic and 115 pallets of supplies.

This October, four of our trustees are taking on the Sahara Desert! 🏜️ They’ll trek 100km in 5 days while: 💙 Delivering diabetes education 💙 Visiting hospitals & clinics 💙 Sharing skills with local healthcare teams Support their trek & bring vital healthcare to those in need: tinyurl.com/bde4mjcd

Humanitarian aid must be protected, not blocked. The Israeli navy intercepted several #GlobalSumudFlotilla boats last night, stopping aid delivery to Gaza & violating international law. We demand protection for all activists and the boats still sailing.

Deadly UK border policies have taken four lives this weekend - including a child. These are entirely avoidable deaths. Safe routes must exist so people seeking safety no longer have to risk their lives.

The government's plans to introduce digital ID cards will inevitably make migrants' lives harder and more dangerous, creating new barriers to healthcare and safe housing. We’ll be watching this policy closely and will continue to fight to protect everyone’s access to NHS care.

Humanitarian aid must be protected. We strongly condemn Israel's attacks on the #GlobalSumudFlotilla last night, including drone strikes and explosions. There is no justification for blocking a peaceful mission delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza. Read more 🔗 shorturl.at/mfMMG

65,000 dead, including 20,000 children. 90% of residents forcibly displaced. Famine declared. Aid blocked and militarised. Humanitarian workers targeted and killed. A UN Commission declares Israel is committing genocide in #Gaza. We call on States: stop being complicit and act.

We are in contact with people detained for the one-in, one-out scheme, the vast majority of whom are torture and trafficking survivors. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Survivors of trafficking and torture are locked up under the UK-France ‘one in, one out’ scheme. Many are terrified, some with suicidal thoughts. Successful legal challenges show the scheme risks serious human rights violations. It must be stopped.

Hate does not belong on our streets. For years, migrants, refugees & racialised communities have faced racist rhetoric. This weekend, that hostility spilled onto the streets in full force. The fear targeted communities must be feeling needs to be recognised. We stand with them against hate.

The '1-in1-out' plan, just like the failed Rwanda plan, is an attack on the human right to seek asylum. It must be stopped. We cannot punish survivors of torture and trafficking for how they arrived in the UK while denying them any safe alternative. www.lbc.co.uk/article/firs...
