Refugee Legal Support (RLS) and Safe Passage International (SPI) are looking for a Community Outreach Worker for an initial period of 12 months, to deliver outreach activities in the framework of the Afghan Pro Bono Initiative. 

About the Afghan Pro Bono Initiative

The Afghan Pro Bono Initiative is a new project that RLS and SPI will deliver with funding and pro bono capacity of 14 leading commercial law firms. It aims to respond to the increased need for legal advice and representation of Afghan nationals and their family members who have been forced to seek protection and reunion with family in the United Kingdom following the Taliban takeover. 

The project will focus on delivering high quality legal representation in a range of cases, including family reunion, the ARAP scheme, the Afghan Citizens Resettlement Scheme and others. Firm pro bono lawyers will be trained and supervised by two full-time expert immigration lawyers at the NGOs to assist with legal casework. 

The casework of this project will help to feed into strategic efforts by the NGOs to make existing ‘safe’ routes to protection (in particular refugee family reunion and resettlement schemes) more accessible and effective, advocate for their expansion and defend the fundamental rights of people on the move by influencing policy and decision making. 

The project recognises that pro bono legal work is always an adjunct to, and not a substitute for, an adequate system of publicly funded legal services. The project will aim to support and enthuse legal aid practitioners promoting increased casework capacity in the sector for family reunion work. The project will also monitor and document any gaps in legal aid provision within its scope of work and contribute to campaigning efforts to facilitate increased publicly funded provision. 

About RLS and SPI

RLS is a UK charity and a non-profit company in Greece (AMKE). RLS works in solidarity with people who migrate and strives to advance safe migration through legal support, casework, strategic litigation, outreach, training and partnerships. RLS advocates for the promotion and protection of people’s rights throughout the migration process in the UK and across Europe and its borders.  

SPI is an international organisation supporting refugees to access safe routes to sanctuary with offices in the UK, France and Greece. SPI’s vision is for every person seeking asylum to be able to access a safe and legal route to a place where they can lead a full and dignified life. Championing refugees’ rights through strategic legal work, advocacy, capacity building and community organising, SPI is focused on achieving systemic change in refugee and asylum policy at both nation-wide and international level. 

The post holder will be a member of the Afghan Pro Bono Initiative team, which will comprise two lawyers, a coordinator and a community outreach worker sited across both of RLS and SPI in addition to the volunteer lawyers who will be sited within the individual commercial firm partners. 

Key responsibilities

• Identification of the affected communities’ information and training needs across the UK; 

• Design and implementation of an outreach strategy tailored to the needs of the affected communities in the UK;

• Liaising with individuals in need of legal assistance and offering signposting, referrals or casework support;

• Being an active team member to the coordinator and supervising lawyers of the project;

• Deliver remote or in person information sessions targeted to the affected communities in relation to general updates, potential legal remedies and procedures;

• Work closely with local Afghan community organisations across the UK; 

• Contribute to relevant advocacy and campaigning activities of RLS and SPI, for example by conducting interviews and producing case studies, briefings, reports;

• Provide written translations and voice recordings to promote information sharing with the affected communities;

• Undertake administrative duties related to the project including collecting data and keeping records;

• Exploring information and training needs of the affected communities outside the UK subject to need. It is likely that high numbers of people fleeing Afghanistan are found in Turkey, France, Greece;

• Maintain accurate and confidential records in line with GDPR;

• Adhere to SPI and RLS safeguarding policies and procedures at all times.

We value equality and diversity in our organisation, and strive to build a workforce reflective of the communities we work in. We welcome applications from everyone regardless of age, gender, gender identity, ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, faith, or disability.
