We offer many different ways to volunteer with Advocate. If you are a barrister, you can sign up to become a panel member and take on cases. Or you can volunteer through one of our partner schemes or even become a mentor. If you are a student, we run casework programmes throughout the year with opportunities to get hands-on experience supporting people seeking help with their legal problems.
