Praxis

About this provider

Praxis is a charity for migrants and refugees. Our direct services support people in London, and our training and campaign work has national and international impact.

Our core purpose is to help migrants in crisis or at risk, ensuring they can live in safety, overcome the barriers they face, and take control of their own destinies.

From our East London base, we strive for a world where people are not defined by their immigration status, and everyone is treated with dignity and respect. Solidarity, inclusiveness, respect and a hunger for justice are key values of our work and we treasure the shared humanity between those needing and offering support. Our services do not just support our users, they empower them.

We have become the leading expert in finding pathways out of destitution and supporting migrants facing homelessness, as well as survivors of trafficking and domestic violence, young people, EU citizens and long-term residents struggling to find the support they need. We are commissioned to provide specialist immigration advice by other organisations, and we work with local authorities to improve services for migrant residents through advice, training and promotion of best practices.
