Liberty & Kalayaan

Liberty is also known as the National Council for Civil Liberties. Founded in 1934, we are a cross party, non-party membership organisation at the heart of the movement for fundamental rights and freedoms in the UK.

We promote the values of individual human dignity, equal treatment and fairness as the foundations of a democratic society.

Kalayaan is a small London based charity which works to provide practical advice and support to, as well as campaign with and for, the rights of migrant domestic workers in the UK.

Kalayaan was formally established in 1987 by domestic workers and their supporters.  At that time migrant domestic workers in the UK were not recognised within the immigration rules and were brought into the UK informally by their employers.
