The support we provide includes:
Emotional/mental – from providers of psychotherapy Onebright and LawSight. The Charity also part-funds the mental health and wellbeing charity, LawCare.
Financial – if individuals are struggling with finances and money management, partners like Citizen’s Advice Manchester and Pennysmart can help. Subject to eligibility, the Charity can also provide direct financial support.
Professional/career– clients returning to work after a break, experiencing redundancy or changing the sector of the law in which they practice find they benefit from career coaching with partner, Renovo.
Physical –The Solicitors’ Charity provides occupational health assessments which help with adaptations in the home, or specialist equipment, to continue with life.
You can help solicitors, former solicitors, and their dependants by considering leaving a gift in your will. We also rely on regular donations from trusts, foundations, local law societies, firms and individuals, and unclaimed client balances (RCBs).
Please consider donating to help us continue to provide this vital safety net for the profession.
