United Families & Friends

A coalition of families and friends affected by custody deaths and abuse.

Campaign managed by: 4WardEver UK
Campaign location: England, London

The United Families and Friends Campaign (UFFC), a coalition of those affected by deaths in police, prison and psychiatric custody, supports others in similar situations. Established in 1997 initially as a network of Black families, over recent years the group has expanded and now includes the families and friends of White people who have also died in custody.

Campaign goals
  1. Prison deaths be subject to a system of properly funded investigation that is completely independent of the Prison Service
  2. Officers involved in custody deaths be suspended until investigations are completed
  3. Prosecutions should automatically follow ‘unlawful killing’ verdicts
  4. Police forces be made accountable to the communities they serve
  5. Legal Aid and full disclosure of information be made available to the relatives of victims
  6. Officers responsible for deaths should face criminal charges, even if retired
