KENT REFUGEE HELP
Kent Refugee Help supports refugees and migrants held in London and Kent prisons. We help people access legal advice and representation to fight their case. After release we continue to help in other ways, supporting them and providing small cash sums for emergencies. We offer legal advice for immigration via telephone or face to face. We are regulated to give immigration legal advice by OISC.
