Right to Remain + SYMAAG workshop: Thinking with our communities – detention and beyond

The Labour Government has announced their intention to ramp up immigration enforcement. This likely means more raids, more detention and more deportations – and communities need to be ready.

As well as turning their focus to fighting against immigration detention, Right to Remain is now visiting different parts of the UK to explore what knowledge is needed in our communities, what radical solidarity could mean in this context and what we should be doing now to build our communities’ collective power.

After our visits to Birmingham and Nottingham, on Saturday 8 February 2025, Right to Remain are teaming up with their friends SYMAAG (South Yorkshire Migration Asylum Action Group) and MRG (Migration Research Group) to host a solidarity gathering in Sheffield. You will be learning about reporting and detention and thinking about how to build resistance against enforcement together. You will be making new connections, meeting local migration justice groups and strengthening community solidarity too.

The event will run from 10am to 4pm. 

We will let you know the event location (Sheffield City Centre) once your booking has been confirmed.
