As the situation with the COVID-19 pandemic develops, LawWorks is doing its upmost to keep everyone healthy and safe while also minimising the disruptions to day-to-day operations. We are closely monitoring the fast moving situation.
Pro bono, as with all voluntary services, is being affected by the pandemic, both in terms of demand (i,e, people looking for legal information and advice), and operations. Some clinics and advice agencies have temporarily suspended face to face advice sessions. We are working to keep the information on clinics on our website as updated as possible.
LawWorks have postponed all training and events at this time, and we are exploring alternative ways of delivering these.
We will be publishing guidance and resources shortly and sharing information about how the pro bono community is responding. Voluntary organisations may also find the guidance from NCVO useful.
