Cedars is an immigration detention facility in Crawley, West Sussex, United Kingdom adjacent to Gatwick Airport. It is operated by UK Visas and Immigration with security and facilities maintenance contracted out to G4S and Barnardo's providing social workers and child welfare services. Opened in 2011, Cedars is the first immigration detention center in the UK specifically designated for families with children. Unlike other facilities for single adults, which are essentially medium security prisons holding immigration violators pending deportation, Cedars consists of apartments in a more open atmosphere. As a result, the UK Border Agency has referred to the facility as pre-departure accommodation rather than immigration detention. ==Facility== Cedars is built around 9 individual apartments that can accommodate families of up to 6 persons. Each apartment has between 1 and 3 bedrooms, a living room, full kitchen and en-suite bathroom.
