You and your organisation may not be aware of the EU Settlement Scheme and the potential challenges for EU citizens and the communities they live in, once the UK leaves the EU.
We offer free support and advice to people applying to the Scheme, and capacity building on the Scheme for staff and volunteers who work with these communities.
We produce resources on a range of issues for EU citizens such as applying to the Scheme and for those who have successfully applied to manage their immigration status. These are available in different community languages and are in an easy to read format.
Recent findings
Our “Digital Status: Handle with care” report found that 68% of people do not know how to prove their status, while 80% of people of all ages needed support with their EUSS application.
We also organise events and activities to help groups and organisations to start thinking about the issues facing EU citizens and communities in the run up to Brexit and preparing for life once the UK has left the EU.

We run free online information sessions on the EU Settlement Scheme for staff and volunteers who work with EU citizens and in communities. The sessions explain who needs to apply to the EU Settlement Scheme, and how to make an application, as well as exploring the challenges for vulnerable groups in applying. Get in touch at enquiries@neweuropeans.net if you are interested in a session for your organisation.
The EU Settlement Scheme affects millions of people living in the UK who are EU citizens. This will have an effect on public understanding and discourse around EU citizens and communities, as well as decisions on how funding, resources and support are allocated.
It will fall upon local charities, community groups and organisations to provide support. With this increase in need and demand, this sector will need to be prepared with resources, capacity, funding, and signposting to local immigration advice and existing support.
We need to know how your needs and the challenges you anticipate in order to provide you with a tailored package of support. That is why we need your honest feedback and recommendations. Please take our short interactive survey.
