BRILL was created in July 2016 in response to the EU referendum vote in the UK. We are working to protect the rights of British citizens living, working, and studying in Luxembourg, as the UK leaves the EU.
There are approximately 6,000 British citizens living in Luxembourg, contributing to all aspects of Luxembourgish life. BRILL has over 1,100 members (on a Facebook group and email list). Almost 80% of us are economically active, employed or self-employed. Our membership consists of UK EU officials, students, employees in the financial and legal sectors, NGOs, the creative industries, and a wide range of other occupations, as well as self-employed and retired people who call Luxembourg home. Nearly 50% of us are married to partners from other EU countries or beyond, and many of us have multinational families.
