Sukula family give indefinate leave in the UK
NUS Black Students’ Campaign’s long running support for the Sukula family has ended with success as the family has been granted indefinite leave to stay in the UK. The family have been living in Bolton in 2002 after fleeing persecution in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The Black Students’ Campaign led the drive from the students' movement to persuade the Home Office to let them stay after they were initially refused asylum. Flores has spoken regularly at our national conferences and wishes to thank all the students who have helped. NUS wishes her the best of luck with her ambition to study health studies at Manchester Metropolitan University.
