About BiD

BID believes that asylum seekers and migrants in the UK have a right to liberty and should not be subjected to immigration detention. While detention exists it should be sanctioned by a court, time-limited, and detainees should have access to automatic, publicly-funded bail hearings.

As an independent charity BID exists to

• Challenge the use of immigration detention
• Improve access to bail for all immigration detainees
• Immediately end the detention of children and their families
