Every law student is looking for an easy way to show that they are whole-heartedly committed to pro bono work...well here at LawWorks and the Bar Pro Bono Unit we have the answer....The Law School Challenge 2012!
We are looking for teams of up to five people to think of fun and imaginative ways to raise funds for LawWorks and the Bar Pro Bono Unit. Teams then need to put these ideas into motion to raise as much money as they can. The team that raises the most money wins. It really is that simple!
The winning team will receive publicity for themselves plus an amazing prize. Each team member will receive the ultimate legal experience day here in London which includes an audience with a high court judge, meeting a pupil and tenant barrister, lunch at one of the Inns of Court, a visit to a City Law Firm and the chance to come and meet us all here at the National Pro Bono Centre. There will also be a special award for the team which comes up with the most fun and imaginative way to fundraise.
We will also publicise the names of the teams and law schools involved in the challenge on our websites and to our list of contacts in chambers, law firms and within in-house legal teams, so even if you don't win, you are sure to stand out from the crowd on those dreaded application forms. Who knows, you may even meet your dream firm on the day!
It is an amazing opportunity to get yourselves noticed as well as a great way for you to support access to justice.
Don’t miss this opportunity to stand out from the crowd!
The deadline for applications is Friday 28th October, so register your team today!
