White text on a black background reading "Over 100 organisations have sent this open letter to the new Home Secretary: The Government wants to deliver growth and renew Britain. This requires tackling issues such as growing extreme inequality, underfunded councils, lack of investment in quality housing, a crumbling NHS, the climate emergency and polluted waters. Targeting refugees will do nothing to tackle these structural issues or improve people's lives."

Anger and division cause tensions in our communities, dividing us and tearing the social fabric of our society. It harms us all.

That’s why we’ve signed this open letter with over 100 organisations calling on the new Home Secretary to unite communities.

Detention has devastating consequences for everyone, but LGBTQI+ people are at higher risk of harm from bullying and abuse. That is why we are calling on this government to #EndLGBTQIDetention today.

We are very concerned about this government's plan, LGBTQI+ people already face huge barriers to finding safe housing.

This reduction in move-on period risks forcing them into homelessness and unsafe situations, at the moment they are trying to rebuild their lives.
