Quotes

From a lawyer:

Article 1 is an organisation that has supported our client on a pro-bono basis during his time in and out of immigration detention by providing him with guidance and empowerment.

They have worked with the client and Refugee and Migrant Justice, to challenge his immigration detention in the UK and to secure his release from detention.

They have assisted us in coordinating this case and winning compensation for his unlawful detention in the UK.

They have a wide-ranging knowledge regarding the current affairs of Sudan and are able to provide a significant insight as a result.

We hope to continue our work with Article 1.

From asylum seekers:

I have got my status document to remain in the UK.  I wanted to say big thanks to everyone who helped me especially Article 1, Sophie and all your colleagues.  Thank you so much.

Best wishes

I want to say many thanks because you helped me find a solicitor and now I have been granted refugee status by the Home Office.  I am so pleased you helped me.

Thank you very much for all your help, I really appreciate every thing you have done for me, and I am very, very happy for the continuous help you are giving to my people here in UK and back home in Darfur, I also want to thank the entire Article 1 for their untiring support for us.

Thank you so much.  You really saved my life.
