UK not-for-profit groups specialising in legal advice for immigration issues can once again apply for a grant of up to £30,000 from the Strategic Legal Fund (SLF). The SLF supports strategic legal work in the UK which benefits asylum seekers, refugees and migrants which are defined by SLF as those:

• Who are living in poverty and
• Who face significant disadvantage or discrimination in connection with their immigration status.

The SLF funds strategic legal work in any area of law where migrant groups experience disadvantage or discrimination as a result of migration status. The SLF only supports strategic legal work carried out in the UK. This is defined as work where the impact is likely to go beyond an individual case, and to result in changes to law, policy and practice that will benefit a wider group of people. The maximum grant length is 12 months, though most grants are for six months or less. There are usually six closing dates per year.
