GM Immigration Aid Unit Spirit Story - “Thanks for bringing our Dad here. Now we are happy.” [1]
Greater Manchester Immigration Aid Unit (GMIAU) runs a drop-in advice clinic every Tuesday morning. This starts at 8am but there is often a queue of people waiting for them to open. On Tuesday 20th September, there were 3 caseworkers and between them, they held 15 consultation sessions plus one emergency. They were assisted by a volunteer who is training to become a paid caseworker. There is always at least one emergency case, sometimes more.
