In NLJ this week, Bea Rossetto of the National Pro Bono Centre marks Pro Bono Week by urging lawyers to recognise the emotional toll of pro bono work

The London Legal Support Trust (LLST) is calling on the legal community to don aprons and sharpen their pencils for two of its most popular fundraising events—the Great Legal Bake and the Great Legal Quiz. The events, which take place in November, raise vital funds for free legal advice charities across London and the South East

Unclaimed funds left after an opt-out collective action has settled should be given to a justice charity rather than reverting in full to the defendants, lawyers or funders, the Access to Justice Foundation (AJF) has recommended
