Celebrating Pro Bono in Bristol

You are invited to join the Bristol Pro Bono Group to mark Pro Bono Week 2020!

Pro Bono Week recognises and supports the voluntary contribution made by lawyers across the UK in giving free legal help to those in need. In this year of unprecedented challenges pro bono legal help has never been more important for the not-for-profit sector and for vulnerable communities.

BPBG is passionate about access to justice. We encourage lawyers to work with local universities and community groups to deliver pro bono advice to individuals who don't have access to legal advice. We also work collaboratively to identify not-for-profit organisations working in the public interest who need legal assistance.

Join us on 5 November (5pm – 6pm) to understand how our members are working together to increase engagement in pro bono projects in the South-West and to learn about how lawyers can really make a difference in their communities.

The session will include contributions from:

• BPP
• Bristol Law Centre
• Osborne Clarke
• Simmons & Simmons
• TrustLaw
• University of Law
• University of the West of England

A Zoom link will be circulated to those who have registered a couple of days prior to the event.

Thanks in advance to Bristol Law Society who will be hosting the event.
