About Us

What is Tulia?

Tulia began as a community group known as Migrant Family Support in 2017, registered as Community Interest Company in 2020. Our Founder and CEO is Rumbidzai Bvunzawabaya, a solicitor of over 20 years. In October 2021 she rebranded, launching Tulia.

We are a team of black and ethnic minority individuals who can truly articulate migrants' issues and are well equipped to help their cases. Long term residency is never a simple story, but we have made it possible for so many people over the years to have good, secure and new beginnings.

What we do

Tulia offers expert legal advice and support to migrants from all walks of life and are excited to be expanding our services, training and capacity building programmes; especially so that organisations can continue to respond positively to the needs of people who have migrated.
