Hackney Migrant Centre
HCLC is actively involved with providing advice and casework support at the Hackney Migrant Centre (HMC). We have supported HMC since its inception in 2007.
HCLC staff provide high quality legal advice in both social housing and immigration law on Wednesday afternoons at the Hackney Migrant Centre’s drop-in session, which takes place at St. Mary’s Church Hall in Stoke Newington.
We will advise anyone who seeks our help. Most of those who come to us at the Hackney Migrant Centre on Wednesday afternoons are migrants and asylum seekers. The majority of them are often very vulnerable and homeless.
In many cases, Hackney Community Law Centre will take on a person’s case following the initial advice consultation at the Hackney Migrant Centre.
