Bindmans has a proud history of protecting the rights and freedoms of ordinary people. Its 10% Social Justice Fund continues this legacy by bridging funding gaps for those in need. It works by allocating 10% of Bindmans business clients’ legal fees, to support disadvantaged individuals gain access to justice.

In its debut year, Bindmans will partner with two registered charities dedicated to social justice, donating without deduction 100% of the Fund to support the work these charities do in providing access to legal services for people in need.

50% of year one funds will go to The Access To Social Justice Foundation, a Law Society accredited organisation that increases access to justice for disadvantaged individuals. The other 50% will be donated Just For Kids Law which provides legal advice and representation to children in contact with the criminal justice system.

The fund aligns with Bindmans’ Corporate and Commercial team, headed up by Partner Gabrielle Plews, who envisioned this initiative and has been responsible for bringing this industry-first product to the market.
