“The society has a wide range of comprehensive pro bono opportunities available. I particularly enjoy the legal advice clinic, which provides candidates with firsthand insights into pro bono cases and enables us to develop essential skills. The volunteers’ tangible impact across various sectors, including education, community and the penal system, is amazing.”

“The society has a huge range of projects serving both the local communities in which we’re situated and the wider city area. They cover all aspects of pro bono work, from primary school education to prison visits and legal advice clinics.”

“The society offers members the opportunity to volunteer on nine unique pro bono projects, spanning three categories: education, penal reform, and community. Membership of the society costs only £1 for the year, to ensure that the opportunity to gain valuable legal experience is accessible for all students at the university.”

With almost 400 members on campus, our ever-growing society runs nine high quality and innovative
volunteering projects providing pro bono activities within three key areas; directly within our Community, Education, and Penal Reform. We are especially proud to announce this year’s launch of our ninth and newest project, the Pro Bono Society Legal Advice Clinic!

“The society consists of a range of pro bono projects, each with its own team, branding, social media and unique goals. There’s so much to get involved in. One particular event that comes to mind as being innovative is when the society partnered with a homelessness group photography class to take headshots of students – I thought this was an amazing way to bring people together.”
