Law Society Charity, The
This charitable fund was established in 1974, independent and in close collaboration with The Law Society (TLS), making grant awards to a wide range of organisations with a view to further law and justice. The Charity supports organisations whose work is related to the law and legal profession; and whose activities would likely benefit from funds made available on behalf of solicitors.

LawWorks
Access to legal advice can change someone’s life; helping them protect their home, secure their income or challenge injustices. But for people who cannot afford a lawyer, knowing where to turn can be hard. LawWorks (the Solicitors Pro Bono Group) is a charity working across England and Wales to close that gap, connecting people with lawyers willing to volunteer.

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.
