We create narrative change through the media by amplifying the voices of people with lived experience of migrating to the UK. We humanise the debate through powerful storytelling to create connections with the audience. Through our audience insight work we craft narratives which speak directly to different sections of the population. We train, mentor and network with grassroots charities and organisations across the refugee and migration sector to build capacity and increase the effectiveness of communications. We humanise and influence government policy to build a more compassionate, welcoming society and a fairer immigration system. 

IMIX has been involved in many of the most critical media moments of the past few years. We were instrumental in amplifying the voices of the Windrush generation to expose a national scandal and humanising the Channel crossings debate as well as supporting calls for Ukrainian and Afghan resettlement schemes. More recently we have been working behind the scenes to build human stories about refugee homelessness and off-shoring asylum seekers. 

“Since being a Refugee Week Ambassador (with IMIX), I have felt empowered to contribute even more to society: from volunteering and fundraising with various charities/causes, to advising the Mayor of London, influencing and lobbying parliament while embracing a life of servitude unashamedly.”
