Project 17 are delighted to announce a new training series in collaboration with United Impact.
United Impact are a group of around sixty people with personal experience of no recourse to public funds. Their aim is to raise awareness of the extremely difficult conditions that families with NRPF are forced to endure. The group works with decision makers, local authorities, and campaigners to challenge NRPF and fight for equal rights for all families in the UK.
Over the coming months, we will be hosting a series of expert-led training sessions designed to deepen understanding, provide practical tools, and empower professionals working with families affected by NRPF:
