Settled

Who we are

Settled believes that EU citizens who have made their home in the UK should be allowed to continue to do so lawfully, safely and successfully.

Settled works to support the rights and wellbeing of EU citizens in the UK so that they can continue to live, work and be united with their families, and to reduce the many risks associated with being here unlawfully or unwelcome, following the UK’s decision to leave the European Union.

Our culture and values

Settled is a charity set up in 2019 to help EU citizens living in the UK whose rights were affected by Brexit. We worked hard to ensure as many as possible secured their immigration status before the deadline in June 2021, so that their lives here could continue. 

We now continue to provide information, advice and support to EU citizens, including people who are late applying to the EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS), or who have had their application refused. We also help when people are struggling to prove their immigration status or access rights and services. These can include the right to bring family members to join them in the UK, and to access welfare benefits, healthcare, etc.  

Since March 2022, we also provide advice on Ukraine visa schemes. This Ukraine service covers immigration rights and broader rights of housing, education, etc. (We do not assist in ‘matching’ directly).
