What we do

At BIHR, we're all about making human rights real for people across the UK. Working with individuals, community groups, public bodies and policy-makers, we shine a light on the way the Human Rights Act can be put into practice and make a positive change in all our lives.

In 2024 alone:

800+

We trained 800+ staff across care, housing and health on their Human Rights Act legal duties, from frontline workers through to senior leads, Boards and commissioners.

24

We supported 24 community and grassroots group across the UK to understand and use human rights in tackling injustice; from racial justice to disability discrimination, from children & young people's groups to migration organisations. Human rights are universal and so is BIHR's work.

250+

We co-led knowledge-building sessions with over 250 charities and civil society organisations to support them to use human rights law in their work.
