Empowering young people. Standing up for their rights.

What we do

We support young people

Criminal Law

We do our utmost to avoid the criminalisation of children and make sure that young people’s voices are heard and valued both at the police station and in the courtroom.

Community Care Law

We provide legal advice and representation to children in contact with the criminal justice system who may also be facing a wide range of issues related to the care system.

Public Law

This page is under development

We fight for change

Strategic litigation

We take on legal challenges which we hope will bring about wider changes in law and policy to transform young lives.

Youth Justice Campaigns

Protecting the rights of children and young people in the youth justice system is an integral part of our work.

Monitoring rights

We research and lobby to ensure the rights of children and young people are respected and promoted.
