About us

Rainbow Migration supports lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer and intersex (LGBTQI+) people through the asylum and immigration system.

Nearly 70 countries criminalise same-sex relations, some with the death penalty. The persecution experienced by LGBQTI+ people goes well beyond any official prosecutions. They face violence, humiliation, inequality and discrimination by state officials, their own communities and families. Rainbow Migration assists LGBTQI+ people seeking protection from persecution.

We provide practical and emotional support for LGBTQI+ people seeking asylum to help them establish support networks and reduce isolation. We provide free and confidential legal information and advice. We advocate for improved policies and practice. We also continue providing support and information to LGBTQI+ people seeking to live in the UK with their partners.

Rainbow Migration's World Cup of Shame Appeal

Every week, we are immensely grateful to be approached by people that want to raise much needed money so that we can keep running vital services for LGBTQI+ people seeking safety in the UK.

In the last few weeks, we have made the difficult decision to turn down several kind offers of support to raise funds for us, as the activities would also have promoted the World Cup in Qatar. As much as we appreciate each and every generous offer, LGBTQI+ people are not safe in Qatar and the World Cup is simply not aligned with our values of safety, integrity, belonging and respect.

Saying no to these contributions means less cash coming in during these increasingly difficult times.

We have created a ‘World Cup of Shame’ pot in place of the fundraising proposals we have turned down for those of you who would like to support Rainbow Migration. Can you make a donation today and help us to continue supporting LGBTQI+ people seeking safety in the UK?
