Charities offered complimentary access to LexisNexis until 19 August

LexisNexis is offering charities gratis access as part of its commitment to the rule of law

The legal publisher is offering charities free access to Lexis®Library and Lexis®PSL until 19 August.

Lexis®Library provides quick and comprehensive access to the black letter of UK law, helping lawyers save time and be more effective. It collects all the legal resources you need into one easily searchable place.

Lexis®PSL provides practical guidance on all aspects of legal work, and is linked directly to source for maximum efficiency. It offers practice notes, precedents, forms and current awareness alerts across 35 practice areas, helping you stay ahead of any developments in the law.

LexisNexis believes that ‘as the world adapts to new ways of working, access to industry leading legal resources is too important to be impeded by changed location or circumstance. For the charity sector, this is perhaps more important now than ever before.’

To apply for this unique offer, simply fill in a short form with your charity number at: https://bit.ly/2Zu9fim.
