What it's all about

I am a first year law student and I want to be able to give people free legal advice (pro-bono) for any situation which members of the community come across and they think that they could be liable, for example, for damages from someone else's carelessness, or that a crime that had been committed towards them?
I also want to be able to teach young kids and adults, in the community, about what their rights are by giving them lessons on law, corresponding to my law course. This will send the message that every one is responsible for their actions and that the law is part of everyday life which we need to be aware of instead of being ignorant about.

What's needed to make it a reality

I am not entirely sure of all the things I will need but the main resources would be a classroom, a website where anyone who is interested can sign up to, and a forum for the members to communicate with each other as well as to communicate with me. Writing materials for use during classes would be useful a well.

    It looks like you've got lots of exciting ideas.

    Because you are a student at Nottingham University you can access up to £750 to turn your idea into a reality. Nottingham University is one of 15 Universities who are taking part in the scheme where you can access funding, training and support from me (your Junction49 staff member) to help you get your project up and running.

    I'll be in touch soon to have a chat!
