Our Law and Migrant Rights Centre (formerly known as Migrant Support Centre) has moved from its premises in Dungannon Business Park to a new office at 11, Feeny's Lane, Dungannon. To make an appointment at the new centre, call us on 028 87729 002.
Individual support to migrant workers is carried out in our Migrant Support Centre(located in Dungannon). The service is usually accessed by individuals with little or no knowledge of English, who need information and help to access basic services such as Health, Social Security, Home Office, Education services, etc. Appointments are necessary. The centre is open from 9 am until 5 pm Monday to Friday at the S.T.E.P. offices in Dungannon (10 am to 5 pm on Wednesdays).
The centre is open to the public and is free to access by individuals from the migrant worker or local population. There are three bi-lingual support workers (covering Polish, Lithuanian and Portuguese/Tetum) who work on allocated days - some evening appointments are available on these specified days. Other languages (Mainly Latvian, Russian and Tetum) are covered by interpreters.
