Together, we speak up for those who have no one else to turn to. <\/p>\n \n Sign up here<\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Reprieve is a legal action non-governmental organisation (NGO).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are investigators, lawyers and campaigners fighting for justice. We defend people who are facing human rights abuses, often at the hands of powerful governments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We investigate.<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

We uncover evidence and reveal the truth about human rights abuses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We litigate.<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

We challenge human rights abuses in the courts of law – in the UK and around the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We campaign.<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The Reprieve community fights to put the spotlight on cases of injustice. We amplify those cases in the media and by working with Governments to improve legislation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our investigators, lawyers and campaigners fight for those who need it most – people on death row, people held without charge or trial, people tortured and people targeted by illegal and lethal drone attacks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can find out more about how you can get involved and join the fight against injustice here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
