Support Through Court (formerly known as the PSU) is a highly respected, friendly and energetic charity providing practical and emotional support to people facing court hearings without lawyers. Most of those litigants are frightened of, and unfamiliar with, the courts and many are in danger of losing their homes, children or livelihoods.

We have just gone through a rebrand to promote our services better to supporters and clients, and we are passionate about our vision that no one should face court alone.
Support Through Court are seeking a new IG and Events Fundraiser with great administration, marketing and event skills to help us grow our support. We can offer you a supportive and professional working environment with a commitment to developing your skills.
