We use the law to
build power.
The Public Interest Law Centre uses legal action, research, and advocacy to fight structural injustice alongside communities.
We work in collaboration with impacted individuals, grassroots groups, campaigns and frontline organisations.
Public funding for legal aid has been decimated.
We’re a dedicated not-for-profit law centre. Cuts to legal aid mean that we have to subsidise the majority of cases that we take on.
Your donation will help fight for the rights of every person who needs our services.
Put the law's power into communities: support PILC's Fighting Fund
As we witness the deepening of racial and migrant scapegoating in the media, a housing emergency and government cuts damaging millions of people’s lives, along with creeping authoritarianism, we know our work is more crucial than ever.
And yet, exactly when the demand for our work grows, our capacity to meet it is being decimated, as public funding for legal aid has been slashed. Legal intervention is vital but right now, we cannot meet this need without you.
That’s why we’ve launched a new Fighting Fund. Legal aid often doesn’t cover our costs and some cases we take on don’t qualify for legal aid at all. This fund will provide PILC with the resources to fight for our clients and to take on cases we know we should be taking on but currently can’t afford to.
