All detention centres in the UK are required to stock this legal guide, but we want to make a more accessible version for non-English speakers by 'translating' this legal guide into the more narrative format of a comic.
The handbook aims to break down the UK’s complex bail law into simple terms to empower people to secure their own release from detention. It does so by guiding readers through four routes out of detention:
- Home Office bail
- Bail from an immigration judge
- Bail from the High Court
- A successful immigration case
It provides answers to key questions, from ‘Why am I in detention?’ to ‘Who can be a financial guarantor/supporter?’ as well as providing a sample of the B1 bail application form, a template for writing grounds for bail, an explanation of what to expect at a hearing, and a list of important contacts.
Thousands have used the guide to get out of detention. Now, with the help of Each Other and a team of talented artists such as Jon Sack, Sabba Khan, Rumbidzai Savanhu, Dominique Duong and Shazleen Khan, we want to reach more people than ever by transforming the guide into an illustrated easy-read version.
We believe it is vital that more people detained under immigration powers know about their rights, help us in our mission by supporting the crowdfunder now.
