Sadiq Khan’s deputy chairs £4 MILLION taxpayer-funded charity behind “Migrant’s Guide”

Debbie Weekes Bernard

by Charlotte Gill

Dr Debbie Weekes-Bernard is Sadiq Khan’s £151,465 per year Deputy Mayor, Communities and Social Justice(he has nine deputy mayors in total).

She is also the Chair of Praxis Community Projects, whose title is a bit ambiguous until you head to its website, which advertises “A Migrant’s Guide”:

A Migrants Guide 1024x737

Costing £3 per copy (or free online), the Migrant’s Guide is “interactive guide to support you through your immigration journey in the UK. For migrants, by migrants.”

It comes in different languages:

And is extremely extensive, covering:

  • LGBTQI+ support
  • Immigration raids
  • Mindfulness activities
  • Register for GP & care needs
  • Homelessness support if you have children
  • Free activities
  • Universal credit
  • Housing benefit & council tax

Among other areas: Solicitors and Immigration Advice Centres

Like I say, £151,465 per year Weekes-Bernard is Chair of Praxis, which she describes as “a charity supporting migrants and refugees and is a Distinguished Friend of the Migration Museum.” (Which itself received £1,147,120 from taxpayers between 2021-25).
