The 2016 Host Organisations

Pupillages

This is the first year Pupillages have been offered as part of the Justice First Fellowship.

Each Pupil fellow will spend a year at The Bar Pro Bono Unit before starting their pupillage in chambers.

Training Contracts

Eleven Host Organisations were chosen to host a Fellow on a Training Contract in this, the third year of the Fellowship. Eleven positions were advertised, but due to the number of exceptional applicants, a further two positions were created – two fellows were placed at Birmingham Community Law Centre and one at The Public Law Project (one of the original hosts in 2014).

Further information on each Host Organisation can be found by following the links on the left of this page.

They were chosen as they are all:

• committed to, and expert in, different categories of social welfare law
• known to be innovative, effective and think creatively about their future sustainability
• involved, in different ways, in work that is of national significance
• registered as training establishments with the Solicitor’s Regulatory Authority
