Access to Justice Foundation, The
Every day thousands of people need help with legal problems that if left unaddressed can quickly spiral out of control. We exist to ensure people can gain free legal advice so that they can escape homelessness, be safe from abuse, have an equal and respectful workplace, and more.
LawCare
LawCare is the mental health charity for the legal sector. We provide free, confidential support, peer support, and information to anyone working in law across the UK, Channel Islands, and Isle of Man. We also work to improve mental health practices in legal workplaces through education, training, and research. Whether you’re having a tough day or dealing with a bigger challenge, LawCare’s helpline is a safe, non-judgemental space to talk.
LawWorks
LawWorks (the operating name for the Solicitors Pro Bono Group) is a charity working to enable access to justice through connecting people to free legal advice. Covid-19 has already had a significant impact on the vulnerable groups and communities supported by clinics on the LawWorks network, our members and volunteers. Many people will suffer from loss of employment, difficulty accessing benefits, housing issues, and domestic abuse, and these issues are likely to continue long after the immediate crisis is over.
Support Through Court
Every year, thousands of people in the UK face court alone. Often through no choice of their own, they must represent themselves at a moment that could determine the rest of their life. We stand with those who have nowhere else to turn. We provide a free service across England and Wales, offering support and guidance before, during, and after court.
