1/3 Judicial review is meant to help people challenge unlawful decisions by public bodies.

But today, it’s simply too expensive for most. PLP research from 2019 found that an average case can cost £30,000+. Today it is likely to be more costly. This puts justice out of reach for many.

Court of Appeal dismisses Government's appeal over anti-protest laws - Public Law Project The Court of Appeal has sided with Liberty and Public Law Project against the former Home Secretary's unlawfully made protest regulations

Congratulations to @libertyhq.bsky.social for issuing this case in which PLP acted as an intervener.

Delighted to be talking at this event this evening on such an important topic on behalf of @publiclawproject.bsky.social.

⚡️Why we took action:

After 30 years of neglect, the legal aid system is in crisis. We need more than sticking plaster solutions!

The Government must go further and listen to people who have been left without access to justice.

We demand a sustainable, well-funded legal aid system for all! ✊🏽

Come and join PLP! It's such a brilliant organisation to work for with lovely people and this is a unique opportunity to shape our work in the philanthropy space.
