   4.    Volunteer at the Unit

The Bar Pro Bono Unit has limited capacity to take on volunteers, however, we do sometimes advertise regular volunteer positions. These are administrative roles within the office and do not involve legal work. Click here to see which roles are currently available.

The Unit also take on ad hoc volunteers from time to time to complete particular projects. These include:

          • Updating the Unit's contact database
          • Large mail-outs
          • Inputting data

To be informed of any regular or a hoc volunteer opportunities that come up please contact us with your name and contact email address which we will add to our database. Our volunteer co-ordinator will then contact you when the next opportunity arises.

Please note: All voluntary positions involve attendance at our office in central London during office hours. It is very rare for us to be able to provide the opportunity to work from us out of hours or at weekends.
