The aim of this guide is to help communities, workers, and civil society organisations supporting them, to understand the process of using legal action in England to hold UK companies to account for harming people in other countries.

The guide is supposed to help understand the basics of legal action in England against UK companies, but on its own, it does not provide enough information to help assess whether legal action could be an option in a particular situation.
