Poverty Used against Mothers in Custody Cases

Great article in the Camden New Journal after our public meeting on 12 March called by All African Women’s Group, part of Global Women Against Deportations, Support Not Separation, Disabled Mothers’ Rights Campaign.

Children need their Mothers, Mothers need their Children

Mothers seeking asylum or on work permits after fleeing war, climate collapse, poverty, persecution, rape and other torture often have to leave our children behind. In the UK, mothers face family courts that remove our children, especially if we are poor, single, of colour, disabled, and/or report domestic/sexual violence from the father. Mothers are worried sick when our children lose our protection.
