Training & workshops
Our training programmes make sense of common legal issues, such as benefits, housing and child protection, for people with no legal background. They give you, or the people you support, the confidence to act, and make informed decisions.
We used to be known as Law for Life.
Who is it for?
We work with frontline organisations and community groups that do not specialise in law, but perform a vital role in helping people navigate legal problems, signpost to useful resources, and support the early interventions that are needed to avoid problem escalation.
Bespoke training
We are experts at creating and delivering tailored training programmes. We’ve worked with a range of groups, organisations, and providers, at all stages of this process, from applying for project funding through to delivering innovative workshops. Get in touch if we can help you.
