In broad terms we work wtth those who have made a request for proleclion in the UK which may be considered under the UN Refugee Convention 1951 or under the European Convention on Human Rights 1950. We provide legal advice and representallon when someone cannot access18gal ald because it has been withdrawn or their immigration matter 1$ 'out of scope, of legal aid. No other organisation provides this service in Wales and consequenlly Asylum Justice is the last place that people can turn to for help in Ihelr asylum or immigration case. Where we succeed in securing status or reuniling 8 famity, it is a vitsl step in ensuring meaningful socio-economic inclusion for some of the most vulnerable individuals in Wales. Wider outcomes include reducing pressure on statutory and third sector agencies, particularly when destitute indrviduals gain access to social and legal protections. The value of our unique Servi cannot be stressed enough. Our specrfic casework Objectives can be broadly summarised as: To assist asylum seekers and other vulnerable rnigrants in securing and maintaining legal recognition, thereby alleviating destitution and exclusion amongst Ihis clienl group. To keep families liying in the UK together through making initial and further leave applications., To reunite refugee families in Wales by representing them in family reunlon applications.
Asylurn Justice Report of tho Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 Since 2013, we have primarily focused Our limited resources on delivering hIghuality legal advice and representation seNi¢es. Our wider charty objeclives expanded Slight in the last three years to include taking steps to participate further in Welsh and UK-wide advocacy trying to address the systemic problems in the asylum and immigration system5 which give rise to the need for the seNices which Asylum Justice provides: as well as beginning to train up new immigration advisers to assure a future supply to the organisation, Asylum Justice Memorandum and Articles of Association - Objectives (axtract) °The refief of poverty, in particular but nol exclusively, forperson$ including but not limited to asylum seekers and relugees who have at any stage raised arguments under the 1951 UN Convention relating to the Status ol Refugees or th8 European Convention of Human Rights or The Human Rwhts Act 1998 to the Secretary of State for th8 Home Departmenl or Ihe First-Tier and Upper Tnbunal of the Immigratn and Asylum Chamber or in any other legal proceedings,. and To provide leg81 advice. 8SSlStance and representation in relation to persons including but not limrted to asylum seekers who by reason of their in8dequ81e means 8re unablo to obtain such advice and repr8s8nt8tion Irom Ih8ir own r&sourc8s and who, in particular bul not exclusively, h8ve 8t any st8g8 raised arguments under the 1951 United N8tions Refugee Convention or the Europe8n COnv8ntn of Human Rights or The Human Rights Act 1998 to the Secretary of Stale for Ihe Home Department or the First-fier and Upper fribunal of the Immigration and Asylum Chamber or any other leg81 proceedings."

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Please note 8tatl8tics cover Ihe reporting period (11t Apnl 2024_ 31JI Mah 2Q25) for this annual report. With a shortage of legal aid 801icitors In Wale8, a shrlnking sector, and stringent merlts tests, there continues to be large numbers of clients denled access to justice. The extent of this is highlighted in several research reports including ongoing work by the Bevan Foundation. In its 2024 Briefing on free-at-source immigration services in Wales, it note5 that.. "Oflhe bNo organisations operating above OISC Level 1 (the most basic level), only Asylum Justice offers casework lo a broad cohort, focusing on refugees and vulnerable migrants .This make8 Asylum Justice unique in Wales."

Asylum Justice Report of the Twstees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 Overall Support Provided by Asylurn Justice In total. we responded to 974 enquiries during this reporting period. Thls covers those who were taken on for substantive legal advice orland representation (or added to the waiting list where necessary), given onewoff advice, referred to a legal aid provider, or signposted to other organisations. This is significantly more than the 746 enquiries we responded to in 2023124, a rise . of 270/0. Out of these cases, we provided substantive legal advice andlor representation where a caseworker was allocated to 663 clients, 8 41 rise from the 470 clients provided with substantive legal advice andlor representation in 2023124. These figures illuslrate the issues outlined above and the strain put on our serdlce over the period. They also highlight the hard work and dedicalion of our staff and supporting lawyers, in a climate ol antipathy and anti-migrant rhetoric impacling on some of the most vulnerable people in society. Aroas of Work Below is a breakdown of the maln areas ofwork. (Some legal advicelrepresenlalion is not included due to being ongoing and $0 not yet quantifiable, or an ad hoc area of work such as a spousal visa or travel document.) Appeal• 69% •ucce•• rat• for app¢al• (2024) We lake on the appeals of asylum seekers denied legal aid on the grounds that solicitors considered their case too Weak, to win on appeal or where we have represented the client in their initial claim. We often act in appeal cases deemed complex and unlikely to succeed. Despite this, in 2024125 we won 69 % of these appeals. 2 This demonstrates both the importance of representation at appeal stage, and the high-quality legal support delivered by Asylum Justice. Thi8 area ol work usually requires very quick action. This is because clients who have had legal representation withdrawn by their previous legal aid solicitor will have a very short timescale In which lo lodge an appeal and, once the appeal is lodged, an initial court hearing can be listed for less than a month later. Clients at this stage ofthe asylum PFoGess are also on Ihe verge of becoming destrtute, as Home Office support and accommodation are withdrawn rf no appeal is lodged or. indeed, If an appeal 15 dismissed after a hearing in which the client was unrepresenled. We also rnade a small'number of appeals against deportation. Fresh Clalm# 14•/0 8uccess rat• for fresh clalmg submitted; 14Y• r•fu••d •ubml4•lon• granted rlght of appeal.12024) In 2024125, we submitted 7 fresh Claims lor refused asylum seekers who had exhausted all appeal rights. Asylum seekers who have exhausted all appeal rights sometimes have fresh ground5 Or. comp8lling new evidence with which they can make further submissions to the Home Office in support of their previous asylum claim. Some simply never had their claim fully considered the first time around due to poor quality legal representation or an appeal not being lodged in time. 2 This compares to the natlonal average for successful appeals which Is 48Vo for 24125.

Asylum Justlc• Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 This demonslrates the high qualrty of submissions made, as the ovefwhelming majority of fresh asylum claims are not granted a right of appeal when refused by the Home Office. The right to have your case heard by an immigration judge dramatically impioves an applicant's overall Chances of succeeding with a fresh claim. Many of these clients will be completely destitute, having spent years in enforced poverty and homelessness in the UK due to their lack of legal status. For most. retuming home is not an option due to continued fears for their safety. When a fresh claim is successful, it transforms a client's situation immediately, by granting them legal status and associated righls such as the opportunity to work andlor claim benefits. It will also create the nght to apply for refugee family reunion, thereby allowing them to recover from recent traumatic experiences and fully integrate into Welsh society. Famlly Rounlon 100% successful Famlly R•unlon applleatlons (2024) We 8ubmltted 2 family reunion applications and 8 Family Reuftlon Appeals awalllng an outcome. Despite being a fundamental human right, this is an area of law without access to legal aid provision. Without representation, many fugee familles remaln separated, which impacts significantly on the sponsor's ability to recover and integrate into the host communrty, whllst relatives remain. in often dangerous environments, such as war zones or refugee camps. Leave and Nallonallty Appll¢atlon8 100% su¢¢essful Indeflnlte leave to remaln, settlemen¢ and na(uralisatlon applleatlons. 71•/• sueeessful leave to remain appllcatlons and 92% successfvl fvrther leave appll¢atlon$ (2024) We assist vulnerable migrants, many of whom'are failed asylum seekers, to make applications for leave to remain in the UK based on their private and family life. Many of these clients may be part of established Welsh fa'milies, wth a child or partner who is either a Brit15h citizen or legally settled here. Many of those with leave lo remain in the UK on grounds of their family and prlvale Ilfe are required lo make four separate paid applications over a ten-year period before being able to apply for legal settlement. To find thousands ol pounds every few years for application and solicilorfs lees is beyond the reach of most. If no extension application Is made before an applicanl's current leave to remain expires, they will become 'overslayers' overnight, thereby losing the right to work or acces4to public funds. They also face the risk ol detention and forced removal, separating them from their loved ones.
Asylum Justice . .R•port ol the Trnstees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 Inltlal Asylum Clalms 50•/• $uc¢ess rate for initial asylum claims, with 46OA having a Rlght to Appeal {2024) Since 2022 the number of providers in Wales have closed their legal aid departments. and the legal aid system in Wales has come near to collapse, in a region already describe as a legal aid desert. 3 The remaining providers have been left working at full capacity, with delays in offering appointments, and in some cases unable to take on any new eAses at 811. This has led to initial asylum claimants land even unaccompanied asylumvseeking children {UASC cases) See below) being unable lo access a legal aid soliciloT. This has meant Asylum Justice is now taking clients who should in theory have access to a Legal Aid solicitor. This has meant we have had lo consider how to priorilise our work in a way not envisaged before 2022. In 2024125, we had 72 clients with initial asylum ¢laim$ that were considered with 8 50Yo success rate, and 46Vo of the reniaining clients aving a right to appeal. 6. Unaccompanled Asylum Seeklng Children (UASC) 85% success rate for UASC clalms {2024 As noted above, due to the lack of immigration providers in Wales. Asylum Justice has entered into an agreement with a number of Local Aulhorrties in Wales to provide legal advice and representation lo unaccompanied childn. We are now the sole provider of immigration advice to UASC5 in five Local Authorities in Gwenl a5 well as providing advice lo UASCS in other Local Authorities throughout Wales. In 202415 we have provided advice and representation to 74 UASCS. Overall, we have provided legal advice and representation to 105 UASCS since we began this work in late 2023. 7.

This enable5 vulnerable clients on the verge of destitution to claim benefils where they are eligible. We submitted one of these applications which was su¢¢esslul, 8. Referrals to Legal Ald Provlders As we do not use legal aid to fund our casework, we refer out clients vtho are eligible for legal aid to local immigration and asylum solicitors where possible. This has ensured our casework resources could be focused on clients with no access to legal aid. This demonslrates the vital role Asylum Justice plays in securing representalion lor clients whom we do not directly represent. However, this has. become increasingly difficult due to the lack of legal aid providers, and the reason we have expanded our casework to initial asylum claims and unaccompanied asylum seeking children, as detailed above, 9.

Asylum Justice Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 10. A8ylum Justlce Fh Clalms Project (Cardlff ynlver•lty In March 2024, the Ukraine Project Cymru, an award winning Pro Bono Project in Cardrff Sthool of Law and Politics funded by Asylum Justice with funding from the Wales.Sanctuary Support Programme, came to an end. Subsequently, the Welsh Government provided Asylum Justice with funding lo support a new Pro Bono Project in Cardiff School of Law and Politics. The Asylum Justice Fresh Claims Project is led by Jennifer Morgan. a lecturer in law and a qualified immigration advisor, along wtlh administrative and sludent Support. The project has helped to provide support to clients on the Asylum Justice waiting list (and other referrals) who are makin9 a Fresh asylum claim. The Project has been renewed for a second year until March 2026. Serv ce Delive Our service can be accessed via an online referral fom, a support line or via numerous third sector and statutory servIs, referral partnerships. Most significantly, in 2024125 we continued to be part of the Wales Sanctuary Services - a contract for a consortium (this includes Asylum Justice, Welsh Refugee Council, EYST Swansea, Tros Gynnal Plant, BAWSO. and Displaced People in Actlon, (DPIA)} to deliver a holistic, pan-wales service lo people seeking sanctuary, Our role within this consortium is lo provide specialist immigration advice and representation seryices to meet the Welsh Govemment'8 Nation of Sanctuary vislon (https.'Ilgov,walpslwritten-statement-wale&natlon- sanctuary). The Clienl Liaison Officers coordinate belween clients, lawyers, interpreters and partner8. The Client Liaison Officer plays a particularly important role in ensuring the accessibility of our service by reas8uring clients when they first contact A8ylum Justice, gathering necessary paperwork for the lavryer to review Prior to meeting with a client. and managing expectations around waiting times and how our seiCe works. Once allocated an adviser, clients recelve initial al¢e and then might be referred on to a legal ald. provider. where legal aid is available, or represented directly through Asylum Justice. For some clients, due to the ¢ircumslan¢es of their case, it is not possible lo assist them further. These clients nonetheles5 Still receive comprehensive advice from us regarding their situation and oplions, Following advice sessions, VR refer clients lo other services for assistance for issues related to , destitution, communication, mental health, or social isolation. Occasionally, clients need emergency referrals to out-of-hours Social Services departmenls or Accident and Emergency NHS unrts. During 2024125, we have been successfully providing our advice and substantive casework services in a hybrid fonnat. This demonstrates our continued ability to work with a large, number of clients despite working through a mixed modality and with onty a small team. Whether or not the service is offered fac&ttrla¢e or remotely is dependent on the client's vulnerabilrtieslneeds and adwsefs capacity (some work solely remotely). Where Clients need to have remote expert appointments or court hearings, we have also been able to offer limited space and equipment to clients.
Asylum Justic• R•port of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 The demand for our advice and representation has continued lo increase durinl this year and continues to outweigh our abilty to supply these services immedialety to everyone who approaches us. This is illustrated by the figures above. We have also had lo continue to shift Ihe focus of our work lo initial asylum claims and Unaccompanied Children IUASC). Thls is a result of the reduced capacity in the Immigratton legal seIce5 in Wales (as noted above). nd V lunteers Ruth Brown, the Legal Dlrector. is responsibje for the charty's caseVrk and office management. Ruth was nominated In 2020 88 an 'lnspiring Woman Lawyerf in Ihe UK as part of a stLtdy carried out by the Faculty of Law at the University of Oxford. Ruth is frequently invited to speak on national radio and al panels regarding our work and the wider context of UK immigration policy. Legal staff included a small number of sessional caseworkers who provide vital specialist advice and representatlon to Clients. We are very fortunale lo work wlh these experienced sessional caseworkers, who frequently secure po811ive oulcomes for our clients. Working alongside the legal staff, we increased capacity by increasing our Client Liai80n Officers who énsur8d effeclive c<)ordination belween clients. staff, and external partners, in addition to offering administration support and being the main point of contact for our offices. We also have Supervising Caseworkers to carry their own caseload and assist the Legal Director in supervising trainees. Due to a generallsed shortage of immigration advisers in Wales, and subsequently a shortage of Supply to our own organisation, we continue to train up new caseworkers. We began piloting this in 2020 and subsequently expanded il after securing additional funding. With the increased demand on our service and the additional objeclive lo train new caseworkers, we now see it as a priority lo bring more qualified caseworker roles in-house as we secure sufficient funding. We now work wlth several trainees, currently at OISC Level 1 and 2. The Fundlng Officer worked to identify and appty for new funding, maximise the impact of grants. and build up our reserves through ¢areful financial management. Her responsibilities also Included monitoring and evaluation for Asylum Justice,. including reviewing and improving systems for effectively and efficiently collecting statistics. Our Funding Officer resigned In January 2025 and the funding for the position ended in March 2025. We now have renewed funding for the post. In the interim, we have employed a funding and HR consultant to oversee our grant funding and reporting, and lo improve our HR policies and operation. During 2024. we also recrulted a finance officer (PIT) to work alongside the fundlng officer. We also hosted a student placement from Cardiff School of Law and Politlcs, with Ihe studentworking on data collection and policy with the Funding Officer, Partnershl tshl While others in the Welsh migration-focu&ed third sector are working on multiple, interrelated issues which affect Ihe rights and integralion of asylum seekers, recognised refugees, and vulnerable migrants - such as destitution, cornmunication issues, mental health and soci81 isolation - no other agency offers free OISC Level 3 immigration advice and representation to those wrthout access to legal aid, nor maintains a central expert role in Wales on issues regarding the legal aid and immigration systems.

Asylum Ju5ti¢e Report of tho Trustees for the Year Ended 31 Mar¢h 2025 Reserves Pollc The unrestricted reserves on 318t March 2025 are £157,640 which Is equal to approximately 3 months of expected overall expendFture. The current reserves policy aims for.3 months running costs. Our reserves figure was lower than normal at the end of the financial year. The trustees are aware that the reserves are low and it is a priority to grow reserves during 2026 to ensure sustainabilty. The workload of the Funding Officer post during the 2024 year dld nol allow for an indlvidual giving strategy to be drawn up and implemented. While the reserves are lower than desirable, existing grant agreements were sufficient at the end of March 2025 to cover operating. costs for.the 3-month minimum, as Asylum Justice receives generous ongoing support from a number of funders. The trustees are aware of all the major risks regarding the charity including financial and personal risks, which are reviewed on an on-going basis. Financial risk is re¢ognised and controlled by a system of authorisation of expenses and segregation of duties in recording and processing wages and income. Tru8tees are appointed to check and review personnel matters and Heahh and Safety and appropriate insurance are in place.

Asylum Ju$tic• Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 We will continue to improve the organisation's monitoring and evaluation work, producing casework statistics in addition to increasing the number of testimonials gathered from previous clients. This is work which will assist us to identfy improvements we can make lo our service. demonstrating the need for, and high quality of, our service in future funding applications. It also means that We are in unique p051tion to evidence issues and problems occurring within both the asylum and immigration system and the legal aid System. The Legal Director is regularly conla¢ted by academics undertaklng research in these areas. and our greater involvement In general advocacy work 1$ an area of work that we continue to d8velop. Securing further medium to long-term funding is a priority for Asylum Juslice, so that we can ensure the sustainability of its current serviS but also develop our abilty to better resource the organisalion's infrastructure. A better resourced infrastructure will relieve pressure from key members of staff, ensure we can provide our service in a timely manner to all Ihose who heed to access it. and free up experienced members of stsff to concentrate on casework.

Due lo the collapse of the legal aid system, rt is also likely that Asylum Justice will experience lurther increase in demand and may need to continue to lake on cases that were prevlously relerred out to legal aid providers, such as initial asylum clalrns and 'una¢¢ompanied asylum-seeking children (UASC cases).
