We provide funding and support to charities that give free legal help to those in need
We work closely with the local advice and pro bono sector and take a strategic approach to the distribution of funding, accounting for local needs. We distribute funds to strategic regional projects and to local advice agencies such as Citizens Advice Bureaux and Law Centres.
We work closely with The Access to Justice Foundation which operates across England and in Wales enabling us to draw on their expertise of each region, assessing specific local needs and targeting resources where they are most needed.
When making its decision on distribution, the Midland Legal Support Trust has an absolute discretion and the Trustees do not accept any duty or liability to any person seeking a distribution.
Subject always to the point just made, the Midland Legal Support Trust will have regard to (but will not be bound by) any preferences stated by those associated with a donation to the Trust or with obtaining a pro bono costs order.
The Midland Legal Support Trust will not fund litigation (including disbursements) or fund as a substitute for publicly funded legal assistance (legal aid).
