As ever, humbled to be at UK Parliament for the Attorney General Student Pro Bono Awards from LawWorks on behalf of LexisNexisUK. Some incredible talent in the room who make a huge difference to people's lives - what a great chance to celebrate their achievements! #RuleOfLaw
As part of our #RuleofLaw programme, we have created a digitised and simplified PiP (Personal Independence Payment) platform to help those reliant on this welfare benefit due to a disability.
We have put this paper-based form online: ow.ly/31P250Nf5t6
Missed our latest online panel event with LexisNexisUK? A recording is now available! The event, which discussed law & the climate emergency, was in support of our law undergrad essay competition. Entries close @ 4pm on 28 Feb! ilbf.org.uk/2023/02/panel-…
#Law #ClimateEmergency
One of our strategies for advancing the #RuleofLaw is re-investing our Apprenticeship Levy return in providing training for lawyers in free legal advice communities. We want to ensure that the lawyers on the front line of access to justice have the training and support they need.
Law students interested in climate issues: free panel event 25 Jan 5pm, from International Law Book Facility (ILBF) on the role lawyers can have in tackling the climate emergency. Fantastic experts and a fascinating topic - joining details here: ilbf.org.uk/2023/01/2023-o…
Thanks James. It's important that we come together as a sector to promote change and capitalise on the leadership shown by LexisNexisUK. #WeDoProBono #RuleOfLaw
This incredible peice of research from LexisNexisUK should be read by anyone interested in #AccesstoJustice . It shines a light on how hard accessing legal advice can be - and who knows when you'll need it. Don't let the video put you off, the report is mercifully free of my face
Excited to join this panel tonight as part of #ProBonoWeek , talking about hybrid delivery of legal advice and giving a sneak peek of a new LexisNexisUK report on #accesstojustice due out tomorrow.
6pm, in person and hybrid, details in tweet below.
#RuleofLaw Pro Bono Week UK
It's #TrusteesWeek , and I'm proud to be a trustee of London Legal Support Trust. Being a trustee for any charity is important but, for me, LLST is particularly special. Without it, so many across London and the South East would have no access to legal advice.

I may have been in the US this week, but the LexisNexisUK Rule of Law work goes on regardless. Kudos to our awesome team who attended and spoke at the #BarProBonoAwards , maintaining our dedication to supporting Advocate and the Bar in all they do to drive #accesstojustice
We would like to say a HUGE thank you to LexisNexisUK, our headline sponsors of the 2022 #BarProBonoAwards ⭐️
Your generous support has contributed significantly to the running of the awards & enabled us to celebrate ALL the exceptional #probono work carried out by the Bar!🙌
The Rule of Law is referred to daily, but what do we actually mean when we talk about the Rule of Law? We asked James Harper, Legal Director at LexisNexis, to summarise the four pillars in this short video.
