No recourse to public funds
Everyone has a right to access social security and adequate living conditions. These are human rights recognised under international law.
We campaign to end No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF) and the two child limit policy. We urge the UK Government to ensure all people can enjoy their economic, social and cultural rights.

In December 2021, we wrote a report with Project 17 to the UN Special Rapporteur on Extreme Poverty, highlighting how the no recourse to public funds policy violates the right to social security.
