Post-Detention

Beyond Detention

Beyond Detention provides an arc of care. We continue our work beyond the walls of Yarl’s Wood IRC, supporting people for up to one year after their release. We offer:


  • Friendship group - The Friendship Group is open to anyone in the UK who has experienced immigration detention. It is run and managed by a steering group of people, all with lived experience of detention.
  • Online courses - To empower participants and provide peer-to-peer friendship and support, we offer the following courses via Zoom to people with lived experience of detention across the UK
  • Resources - We work in partnership with a number of different organisations across the UK that can help with housing, food and healthcare, and that support survivors of trafficking and torture.
