We defend the rights of people who can’t afford a lawyer, so everyone in our community can get justice. You can help.
By giving or volunteering, you could help someone like Mary get the legal advice and justice she could never afford to pay for.
When Mary was caught up in the Windrush scandal, she faced losing everything. Thankfully a friend told her about the Law Centre, and our advisers helped Mary defend her immigration, benefits and housing rights. Mary says:
‘I don’t know what I’d have done without the Law Centre. Thanks to them, I’ve got my certificate and my British citizenship ceremony. I’ve never left this country before but now I’ve got freedom to travel if I need to. I’ve got proper ID to go for a job. I feel really marvellous, really good. They took a burden off me.’

Our impact, together
50
years helping local people get justice
6,663
people helped in 2021/22
£1.5m
of free legal advice given per year
Our impact
Every year we help around 8,000 people on low incomes across south-west London to understand and defend their rights.
Without the free legal advice and representation our charity provides, many local people would be locked out of getting justice because they can’t afford a lawyer.
