Regrettably, Atheism UK does not have the resources to provide individually personalised assistance for refugee or asylum seekers.
The UK Government has information about claiming asylum to stay in the UK as a refugee; the help you can get from charities, getting a solicitor or lawyer to represent you; and finding a registered immigration advisor.
Atheism UK is affiliated to Atheist Alliance International (AAI) – their Asylum Project is running.
Ana Gonzalez is a UK asylum lawyer.
