Yorkshire and Humberside Against Injustice

Who are we?

YHAI members are all volunteers and the group is made up of victims of miscarriages of justice from Yorkshire and Humberside and supporters of those victims.

We are part of United Against Injustice. We formed on 4th May 2006 and have been accepted as a member group of UAI.

We are also closely related to Innocent which is another member group that supports many cases.

We are not solicitors, so cannot provide legal advice, but we have a large pool of knowledge from the hundreds of cases in the larger groups.

If you have a question we can probably put you in contact with somebody who can answer it from experience.

What do we do?

We provide support for people who maintain their innocence against criminal convictions (usually still in prison), and their supporters.

We provide a safe environment in which victims and supporters can discuss their cases.

We can provide practical advice on how to submit and progress your appeal.

We can provide practical advice on how to support an innocent person while they are in prison.

Meetings

The group gathers in a meeting room every three weeks at the Adelphi Hotel in Leeds.

Meetings at 7.00 pm, gather in the bar from 6.45 pm

All families and supporters of miscarriage of justice victims are welcome.

Meetings are informal and driven by the needs of victims or supporters who attend. Occasionally we bring an agenda. We invite supporters to donate 2 pounds per person to pay for the room hire.
