NCADC Needs Your Financial Help!

- Appeal for 'Standing Orders"

Standing Order, a monthly payment from your bank to NCADC's bank

[Or a one off donation]

No amount too small, no amount too large, just what you can afford

Those facing detention and deportation need NCADC more than ever.

For the last 12 years, NCADC has remained the only national organisation with a mandate to stop deportations. Many, many hundreds, if not thousands, of 'failed asylum seekers' who were facing deportation now live legally in the UK because NCADC empowered them to resist removal and encouraged others to publicly campaign.

But NCADC still does not have secure funding

NCADC is not a registered charity (being a charity would preclude political campaigning) and as such is not able to apply to most charitable trusts for funding. NCADC's work is seen as unpopular by many and despite strenuous efforts, we have failed to attract any new 'core' funding in the last two years.

NCADC's funding crisis is not an interim difficulty - it's an ongoing struggle; unless supporters build up constant funding that we are free to allocate to even our most "unpopular" activities, NCADC will go to the wall.

NCADC activities in the last 12 months included …

v Supported hundreds of families/individuals facing deportation

v Supported hundreds of organisations with 'Signposting'

v Helped hundreds from being deported and secured their release from detention

v Supported 120 on going campaigns and helped to launch 80 new ones

v Provided a "back-bone" of support for all anti-deportation campaigns across the UK, from Plymouth to Glasgow to Belfast

v Supported campaign events, public meetings, demonstrations

v Helped secure an almost daily stream of media articles and several under-cover exposés

v Issued 300 + bulletins on our news-service to over 5,500 recipients

v Supported thousands via our website (average 10,000 visits a month)

v Joined others in lobbying against in humane and unjust immigration policies

Just as those facing deportation have very few people to whom they can turn for support, NCADC has fewer and fewer organisations to which it can turn for financial support.

You are the ones using NCADC and you are the ones who could provide NCADC with the secure funding it needs to continue fighting.

What you can do to help!

Take out a 'Standing order' an ideal form of continuous core funding for NCADC.

Are you willing to commit £10 a month (or more) to NCADC?

If you can't take out a Standing order, make a one off donation.
