Project: Public Opinion Enquiry

Project: Windrush Justice Public Opinion Inquiry

Client name: Jigsaw House Society

Jigsaw House Society runs and supports various projects designed to help grassroots organisations flourish. In collaboration with several partners, we established the Windrush Justice Clinic (WJC) to provide legal advice and support for victims of the Windrush scandal. By connecting community groups with university legal departments and pro bono services, the clinic has supported over 200 individuals and seven community organisations, helping people receive compensation and apologies for their mistreatment by the Home Office.

This project will test ideas that will help WJC build wider public support and change the national conversation around Windrush justice.
