Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants (JCWI) is an independent national charity which exists to campaign for justice in immigration, nationality and refugee law and policy.

Since its inception in 1967 JCWI has helped many thousands of individuals and families who have been affected by the unfairness of British immigration law.

On the strength of its expertise in policy and casework JCWI continues to be an important resource for others who work in this field. It has established itself as a leading training provider and over the years, thousands of trainees have benefited from its training courses.

JCWI produces written materials such as briefings for parliamentarians, campaigners and activists. It regularly posts blog articles on the current issues on its website, some of which are published in national and local newspapers and magazines. JCWI also publishes handbooks and guides for practitioners, the latest being its Guide to the Points-Based System. JCWI’s Immigration, Nationality and Refugee Law Handbook is an essential reference book and guide for all legal practitioners, students and advisors.

JCWI is unique in that it is almost the only national organisation in the field that has never sought nor accepted central government funds to preserve its independence, and can truly claim to be independent and free from any government influence.

JCWI is needed now more than ever, operating in an environment of highly charged immigration and race debate.
