We have succeeded in changing national policy in support of extending Ukrainians' visas. This is the first part of our campaign..
It has been an enormous effort, leaving no stone unturned, working across the House of Commons, Lords, with media and Home Office Directors — our team has led on this from the start, last December 2024, across the UK.
It was this collaboration of 28 organisations who wrote the policy summary to the Secretary of State and Ministers and lobbied every step of the way, including the pivotal Survey & Addendum report of over 1000 guests, which went to help form the EDM, now with 119 signatures — the highest number of signatures of any EDM in the past 2 Parliamentary years! It also included the critical Home Affairs Liaison Committee Q&A on 3rd June 2025, helping support the PMQ on 16th July and questions for the Adjournment Debate on 21st July 2025.
The leadership, strategy, and impact are unrefutable.
We are working hard on a settlement pathway with the HO policy Director and Ministers who have specifically asked for our expertise on this.
