The Strategic Legal Fund is a unique source of grants for legal work that can make a significant difference to vulnerable young migrants in the UK. Our aim is to tackle injustices and inconsistencies
in law and practice by making grants to organisations to undertake pre-litigation research or make third party interventions.
As a result of the Covid-19 outbreak, the SLF is currently not running regular funding rounds. Please note that we still accept out-of-rounds funding proposals where the urgency can be demonstrated.
We expect the SLF to be back up and running from September onwards when it will also be expanding its eligibility criteria. Please bear with us in the meantime.
All current grants are being managed in-house by ILPA. If you have any questions, please email info@ilpa.org.uk.

“After over two years of running the Strategic Legal Fund, the time has come to move on. I am very grateful for the opportunity I’ve been given to work with and learn from inspiring and passionate grantees, expert panel members, colleagues.
The SLF truly is an invaluable source of funding and it has been an absolute pleasure to support the amazing work that is taking place defending the rights of young migrants in the UK.
Thank you for the experience and I wish you every success in your ongoing work.”
