Midlands Migrant Support

Through our visits, MMS aims to ease the isolation and anxiety experienced by people in detention and prison by providing emotional and practical support.

We are there to signpost to services that offer specialist advice and guidance.

We act as unofficial human rights monitors by observing the conditions in immigration detention and highlighting these realities to the public.

Our network of visitors provide friendship and practical support to people who are living in detention and in prison in the on the border of Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire.

While we do not provide legal advice, our volunteers offer practical information and signposting to a range of specialist services. 

And crucially, we provide emotional support to our clients – often acting in the place of family and friends, who may struggle to visit the centres we work in due to their remote location.
