Advocacy Volunteer; Legal Advocacy Support Project (LASP)

Closing date: Friday, 30th October 2026

LASP is a project run by the Bristol Law Centre. Volunteer Law students and graduates work with the Welfare Benefits team to run Personal Independence Payment (PIP) appeals to the First-Tier Tribunal. Students and graduates are given a high level of responsibility and expected to work reliably, independently, and to a high standard.

We require LASP volunteers to complete a 4-hour session per week for 44 out of the first 52 weeks of starting on the project in order to ensure clients receive continuity and support which is paramount to the success of the project. For the same reason we require volunteers to have some availability across the Summer period (July to September).

If you would like to apply for this role, we would love to hear from you! Please return your completed application form via email to hello@bristollawcentre.org.uk by 5pm, Friday 30th October 2026 with the email subject as: “LASP Application: ADVOCACY VOLUNTEER – [YOUR NAME]”.
