Who we are

Just Fair is a UK-wide organisation working to secure economic, social and cultural rights for everyone in our society.

We believe everyone should be able to live well. That means having access to the essentials we all need – like food, housing, health, education, social security and decent work – and being able to participate fully in society.

What we do

We work across the UK to turn rights into reality.

We do this by advocating for change, working with communities, building evidence, and strengthening collective action.

What are our everyday rights?

Our vision is for a fairer and more just society for all.

Why this work matters

For too many people in the UK basic needs are not being met.

Rising inequality, persistent poverty and systemic discrimination – worsened by the climate crisis – are preventing individuals and communities from thriving.

Economic, social and cultural rights provide a framework for change. They help us understand what people are entitled to, who is responsible, and how to hold decision-makers to account.

Our strategy

Our 2025–2028 Strategy sets out how we will strengthen the movement for economic, social and cultural rights across the UK.

We focus on building accountability, supporting people to use their rights, and driving long-term change.

UN special consultative status

We are an organisation in special consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council. This allows us to more fully participate in the UN human rights monitoring system (for example by organising side events, attending and observing proceedings, submitting written statements, and making oral interventions). The purpose of Consultative status is to enable the Council or one of its bodies to secure expert information or advice from organisations having special competence.
