Do you want to find a new sponsor? Here is full list of updated contacts

LONDON April 2: Are you on a Health and Care Worker visa in the UK and have been affected by your employer’s sponsor licence being revoked? Then there is help. The government is encouraging all international healthcare workers who have been affected by a revocation to contact their regional partnership using the details below.

Regional support available
If your sponsor has had their licence revoked, support is available in your local region to help you find new employment in the care sector.

This support can include:
advice and guidance – help with understanding your visa status and employment rights
employment support – support in finding a new employer who can sponsor your visa
help with accessing financial support if you are struggling due to job loss or unpaid wages
mental health and wellbeing support such as buddying schemes and help to access counselling

Who can access support
Support is available to international care workers or senior care workers in England on the Health and Care Worker visa, whose employers have had their sponsor licence revoked. Other care workers or senior care workers in England on the Health and Care Worker visa who want to find alternative employment in care can access support, but those impacted by sponsor licence revocation are currently being prioritised by regional partnerships.
Note: this applies to England only, as adult social care is a devolved matter. If you live in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland, you should refer to information from the relevant devolved administration.

How to access support
You must email the regional partnership in the area where you live. Contact details can be found in the table below.

Your email should include:
your name
the address you are currently living at
your contact details
the name of the provider sponsoring your visa
It is important that your regional contact has the correct information about you so that they can provide the best possible support without delay.
