We support migrants who have no recourse to public funds (NRPF)
Why we exist
Around 3.6 million people in the UK hold visas with the 'no recourse to public funds' (NRPF) condition.
That means over 5% of the population can't access most benefits or housing support. They have no protection if they face a crisis like redundancy, worsening health or relationship breakdown.
People with NRPF are routinely forced into destitution.
Eight out of ten low income families with NRPF go without daily essentials like food, clothing or heating.
We stand up to NRPF.
We want everyone living in the UK to have equal access to the welfare system. We challenge the NRPF policy and we think it should end.
Until then, we work to minimise its impact by enabling people in crisis to access public funds. We advise and support with the 'Change of Conditions' (CoC) application process.
