Addressing disadvantage through legal support: Justice Connect
Share This

Friday, 31 March 2023
Justice Connect is there to help people experiencing significant disadvantage – to help people experiencing or at risk of homelessness; to help renters understand and act on their rights; and to help people and business who are struggling after floods and fires. They also help charities, providing free legal help, and much, much more.
Lord Mayor’s Charitable Foundation provided several important grants to Justice Connect to help them support the legal needs of charities during the COVID-19 pandemic, and support people who found themselves at risk of homelessness for the first time.
