Regional partnerships for migrant care workers
The UK government has invested £16 million into the development of fifteen Regional Partnerships. The purpose of the Partnerships is to support migrant care workers secure a Certificate of Sponsorship with a new employer in the event that their current employer has its sponsorship license revoked.
In response to requests from migrant members of our peer support community for domiciliary care workers, in January 2025 we published the below list of contact details for the fifteen Regional Partnerships. The government then published an equivalent list in April 2025. We regularly cross-referenced against this to ensure the details below are up to date.
