CATU is joing PPR's call for a Moratorium on Winter Evictions
At a recent Know Your Rights Training run in conjunction with PPR & Anaka Women's Collective, "approx. 40 families from Belfast presented under threat of eviction due to the recent change in their immigration status."
PPR are calling on @ukhomeoffice, @mearsgroup, and other relevant public bodies, to guarantee that no individuals or families in Mears accommodation will be made homeless during the holiday period.

📢 Research Participants 📢
I am looking for victim-survivors of sexual violence who are based in Northern Ireland. The research is regarding the possible use of a victim-led restorative justice system for cases of serious sexual violence. See below for more information. 🧵
Our new report found an asylum accommodation system cruel by design, with a truly shocking impact on people seeking safety in the UK.
The Home Office punishes, the public pays and refugees suffer. But who benefits? And what should we do?
🧵of the key points in the report.

No place to play.
No place to wash.
No place to eat.
No place to live.
Life for over 1000 families and individuals living in local hotels.
Mears, Home Office, local commissions and political party’s have been invited to receive a report from residents on 14th October.
In fresh research we launch today, we reveal the fact that hundreds of refugee children in the UK are being mistakenly judged by the Home Office to be adults. As a result, these vulnerable children are being placed at risk of abuse and neglect. THREAD🧵#ChildrenNotAdults
