Charity Partner

This year’s Legal 500 Bar Awards Charity Partner is advocate.


Every day people face life-changing legal challenges, whether losing their home or being separated from their children. Many are left without legal help as they cannot afford to pay. Advocate, the Bar’s pro bono charity, exists to change that. We connect people in need with volunteer barristers, ensuring equal access to justice.

Behind every case is someone at a critical turning point – like Molly, a disabled single mother wrongly separated from her eight-year-old son. Through Advocate, two barristers overturned the decision, reuniting her family. By supporting Advocate, you help more people like Molly to have their voice heard and access the justice they deserve.
