What the charity does

We are a steering group working together to launch a Law Centre for north Wales. The Centre will provide legal advice, assistance and representation to those who would otherwise be unable to afford it, and public legal education. It will employ lawyers and caseworkers to provide legal services directly to clients, and will aim to provide services under the legal aid scheme.
