We are happy to announce that Jean Demars is the new director of the Public Interest Law Centre.
Jean is one of the founders of PILC along with Helen Mowatt and Paul Heron. He has been central to our development over the last few years. In particular, he has led our transformation into a fully independent law centre. He set up our finance systems while also leading on fundraising strategy and spearheading the organisation’s move to become a registered charity.
PILC will have further challenges to meet over the coming months and years. We hope to develop our services and meet the challenge of becoming a leading organisation representing working-class and marginalised communities around issues relating to human rights and social-justice law.
