Migrant Help: £153 MILLION charity that teaches children how to welcome migrants to the UK
In addition to its many other services for asylum seekers and migrants
Yesterday I published a list of 20 taxpayer-funded charities in the asylum and migration space. Paid subscribers can access the full list:
The worst example of this (in terms of expense) is a charity titled Migrant Help. It received £153,592,000 in taxpayer funding between 2020-24.
Much of this was under the past Conservative government; the same one that said it wanted to “stop the boats”. YEAH RIGHT!
If so, why was it giving tens of millions to a charity offering the following services (in different languages)?
I’ve pasted the text below too:
“We can advise you in your language on issues such as:
How to claim asylum
Navigating the asylum process
Applying for asylum support including accommodation
Notifying the Home Office if your circumstances change
Finding legal representation
Accessing healthcare
Support during the post-decision period - read about the support available after positive decision here, and negative decision here
Other asylum and post-asylum claim related matters
“We can signpost you to other helpful services in your area by telephone or in person, just talk to your adviser for more information.”
In addition to its main services, Migrant Help has a “Schools Programme”:
Migrant Help says that children and young adults “have not yet fully formed their opinions around issues of displaced people”. Therefore it has “developed a School Programme to support you in challenging the mindset of young people in the UK and promoting positive discussion around these issues.” The programme aims to “dispel myths and encourage thought and discussion around how to be more welcoming to people from outside of the UK.”
Here’s a video about the programme:
In it, Jonathan Scanlon, the charity’s Schools Programme Lead, emphasises that the overriding theme of “assemblies and workshops” is “how can we make a school a more welcoming place for migrants in the UK?”
Below I’ve pasted some presentation slides Migrant Help created in October 2023:
Notice how the slide below talks about encouraging “independent thinking” in youngsters - even though this programme is clearly to tell them there is only one, correct way to think!
When Migrant Help isn’t brainwashing children, the charity has celebrated International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia & Biphobia…
… and Transgender Awareness Week:
I don’t know about you, but I’m soooooo glad taxpayers were charged £153,592,000 for this.

I am sick of these mainly liberal woke middle class people no doubt university educated who have absolutely no idea what happens in the real world outside their be kind to everyone bubble. Get out into the ghettos in housing estates where many of these people end up on benefits which they are told they can claim for. They get housing while many ex military people maimed or with lost limbs from Blair’s illegal war are homeless.
Absolutely disgusting…it’s gone beyond Ridiculous its like they’re deliberately bringing the country and disrespecting the people who voted they’re rubbing our noses in it and they don’t care who knows it and using little children to do it completely brainwashed it’s getting worse
