LASP is a model for enhancing social welfare law services by recruiting and training law students to undertake selected advice and advocacy casework. The LASP model has had considerable success within welfare benefits appeals casework in Bristol and three other UK cities.
The post holder will be responsible for exploring ways in which to improve the capacity, performance, and inclusiveness of the Project and to promote and facilitate the development of similar projects in other locations. In addition, the post holder would work towards spending a day per week carrying out PIP and WCA appeals casework and associated volunteer supervision. We find that involvement in the casework helps better inform development initiatives and so the roles complement each other well.
3 days (21 hours) per week, fixed term to June 2023 (possibility of extension subject to funding)
Actual salary: £14,427 (£24,045 FTE), plus generous leave and pension package
You will work closely with the other 3 team members to help continue our success with the Project and will be well supported by them and the wider Law Centre. There will be a period of handover/training to ensure you are confident with the development initiatives that have already been considered by the team.
