United Legal Access (“ULA”) is a non-for-profit legal organisation that provides legal support in the community; with a focus on providing legal assistance, legal education and advocating on behalf of black and other minority ethnic groups, migrants and individuals and communities that are often marginalised, discriminated against and facing injustice. They have been assisting those who have been impacted by the Home Office’s hostile environment policies with their Windrush Compensation claim since August 2019.

ULA are offering free-of-charge support to victims of the Windrush Scandal to help them apply for the Windrush Compensation Scheme. You may be eligible for compensation from the Windrush Compensation Scheme if you are a Commonwealth citizen who:
