IRMO is a migrant-led organisation which has provided support to the Latin American community in London since 1985. Our main aims are to combat poverty, to defend our community members’ human rights and to empower our community members to enable them to build a stable life in the UK. In 2014, over 5,000 people benefited from our projects and services.

Latin American House was established in 1983 and is a registered charity and company limited by guarantee. We offer legal and social advice in relation to benefits, immigration, family, housing, and employment law, as well as opportunities to acquire life-long skills and a place to meet people, share ideas and enjoy the rich culture of Latin America.
Latin American Women’s Aid
Latin American Women’s Aid Refuge (LAWA) supports Latin American and other black and ethnic minority women and children experiencing domestic violence to start a new life and play a fuller role in the community. We do this by offering emergency accommodation along with a range of services designed to ensure high quality of service provision.
LAWRS
