The person must be someone who understands the Right to Remain ethos and is prepared to bring their whole self to our organisation.

You will deliver interactive workshops on the legal system for people navigating that system as well as professionals and volunteers. You will engage with our network of community groups to ensure that we are apprised of developments on the ground and we are communicating important changes to these support groups.
