Receiving notice of lost sponsorship due to their employer's sponsorship licence being revoked can be a devastating blow for individuals who have built their lives around their work and residency in a foreign country. In such difficult times, programmes like Inspired to Care can provide crucial support and guidance to help individuals navigate the challenges ahead.
First and foremost, Inspired to Care can offer emotional support to those affected by the sudden loss of sponsorship. Losing a job and potentially facing the prospect of having to leave a country can be incredibly stressful and overwhelming. Having access to a support network where individuals can share their feelings, concerns, and experiences can provide a sense of relief and comfort during this tumultuous time.
Practical assistance is also essential in helping individuals manage the logistics of their situation. Inspired to Care can offer guidance on understanding their legal rights and options, such as exploring alternative visa pathways or appealing the decision to revoke their sponsorship. Additionally, the programme can provide resources and connections to local organisations or services that offer assistance with finding new employment opportunities or accessing social services.
Furthermore, Inspired to Care can offer financial advice support to individuals who may be facing financial hardship as a result of losing their sponsorship. This could include assistance with covering basic living expenses, accessing emergency funds, or connecting individuals with financial counselling or budgeting resources to help them navigate their changed circumstances.

Your landlord or employer will usually send you an eviction notice. You'll need to check how much notice they need to give before you have to move out.
If you haven't got an eviction notice, you can check how much notice you need to give your landlord or employer.
If you can't find the information in your employment contract, you might have a separate written agreement.
If you don't move out by the agreed date, your landlord will usually need a court order to evict you. They might be able to evict you without a court order if:
- your accommodation is free
- you live with your employer
- you live with a client you were caring for
Talk to an adviser if you're worried about losing your accommodation.
