Important to note 👇
This decision by the Court of Appeals is hugely welcome. But UK asylum system is broken -- especially for unaccompanied children whose best interests continue to be systematically disregarded and whose rights are under attack. The fight goes on.

📢 There are still a few tickets left for our next Baobab Talk (London, 14 June) 📢 Join us for an important panel discussion on Age Assessments and best interests of children. Tickets are *free*. Please book below 👇 eventbrite.co.uk/e/baobab-talks…
🧵Children's Rights in the UK: A Backslide We all agree that children deserve a safe and nurturing environment, with access to education, health, and care. But recent findings by the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child @ChildRights1 reveal a concerning reality in the UK.
To all the young people in our community — past, present and future — know that, whatever is in the latest #AntiRefugeeBill, we at the Baobab Centre will always stand by your side and tenaciously defend the rights of young people seeking asylum in the U.K.
Looks interesting and important in the current context!
The professional body for social workers has urged its members not to work with the Home Office to assess the ages of asylum seekers, saying that political pressures could undermine their professional judgment. theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/m…
Hiring alert! We’re looking for our new Head of Operations and Fundraising. This is a fantastic opportunity to join our dedicated Baobab team and help us support young asylum seekers and refugees in their journey. Come join us! All details here: charityjob.co.uk/jobs/the-baoba…
Nothing to see here just Home Office staff calmly responding to the refugee ban bill in an internal Q&A.
Part of their faith-based mental health advice series, @YoungMindsUK just published a guide for young British Muslims, accessible here: youngminds.org.uk/young-person/c…
You can now order our new book on resilience "Behind the Mask", written by our young survivors: “The words in this book come from us, young people from Baobab. We have been in very difficult situations. We would like to share with you how we managed.” baobabsurvivors.org
Infuriating
Here’s a non-hypothetical, real-life case: a 14 y.o., fleeing violence, coming to the UK to be with his older brother, surviving crossing the Channel, & being told on arrival that he is *not* 14 but 25. Asylum system in the UK is organised cruelty atm. No other words for it.

This scandal is devastating and was avoidable. While government ministers were accusing people of "gaming" the trafficking protection system, they were placing children in hotels at high risk of re-trafficking and harm. Now dozens of children are missing. theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/j…
A year ago today 32 people lost their lives trying to reach UK shores. Today we remember them. Lessons must be learnt. We need safe routes for those in dire need of protection. #TogetherWithRefugees
BREAKING Yesterday the Home Secretary said she wants refugees on planes to Rwanda by December. Today torture survivors disrupted the world's biggest airline conference to say: STOP THE FLIGHTS 📍World Aviation Festival, Amsterdam
🎉SUCCESS: we challenged the Home Office's attempted removal of our client to Rwanda and we won! Another sign that we can beat this govt's cruel anti-refugee agenda. Every action counts - and the more of us who come together demanding solidarity & welcome, the better!
We thought the UK stopped trading human beings for cash centuries ago.
The government’s plan to remove asylum seekers to Rwanda is unlawful & unfair–plain & simple. We launched a legal challenge to stop removals on 14 June & ensure all those seeking safety have access to a fair process. Support our vital legal action: tinyurl.com/436prs68
🧡The #SLF is delighted to have provided funding for the research and development of this challenge as well as @AsylumAid's wider work to develop a litigation strategy that will mitigate against the worst impacts of the Nationality and Borders Act & the New Plan for Immigration.

Tomorrow morning we will be in the High Court to stop the Government carrying out its barbaric Rwanda scheme. The Government says it’s sending only single men to Rwanda. This isn’t true.

We're at the High Court today, where our urgent injunction request will be heard, deciding whether Priti Patel will force people seeking asylum into a one-way trip to #Rwanda next week. Regardless of the outcome, we'll continue our larger legal challenge against this policy.
If @BorisJohnson is serious about standing with Ukraine, he must scrap his #AntiRefugeeBill. We sent this message loud and clear on Tower Bridge in London
Thank you to the 45 organisations who signed on to our letter urging the Government to rethink the Borders Bill. No-one should be penalised just because of the route they take to seek safety. Read in full here 👉epaper.thetimes.co.uk/article/282089…
Some important govt defeats on Monday, but much more in #NationalityandBordersBill for @UKHouseofLords to oppose today, inc. changes to age assessments that have had little scrutiny. These will: * increase the no. of children forced to undergo traumatic age assessments...(1/2)
The House of Lords have voted against #offshoredetention in the #AntiRefugeeBill, 208:155. The Government's plans to send people seeking asylum to offshore detention camps will now be considered by MPs, and we must make sure they are scrapped, once and for all 👏
