Law for Life: the Foundation for Public Legal Education is an education and information charity that aims to increase access to justice by providing everyone with an awareness of their legal rights together with the confidence and skills to assert them.

We believe that everyone should understand their legal rights and obligations, and know how to gain redress through the legal system. Yet most people  struggle to cope with legal issues, and often don’t know where to go for help.

We provide multimedia information and education that explains how to manage legal situations in a straight-forward way. We run the award-winning Advicenow website providing a hand-picked and checked information service that draws together the best up-to-date information about the law and rights available on the internet.
