Hibiscus enables marginalised migrant women trapped in the immigration and justice systems to rebuild their lives. We are the UK’s leading organisation working with Black, minoritised and migrant women and families at the intersection of the immigration and criminal justice systems.
We work across prisons, detention centres and in the community, with additional expertise in working with survivors of trafficking across all these settings. We provide individual advice and advocacy, alongside activities promoting practical support, wellbeing and empowerment and agency.
Our holistic person-centred approach supports and empowers our clients to overcome their multiple and often complex needs and, importantly, addresses the disadvantage that language and cultural barriers present.
