Free resources
Our Women's Project have produced free resources to help people seeking asylum successfully navigate the system.

Information for HER Legal Representative
As Protection Gap Advocates we are a diverse group of women who have all had our own experience of the asylum process. We believe that lawyers can help their women clients by giving them the information we have prepared in this leaflet.
