Pro Bono/Innocence

The Cardiff Pro Bono Scheme has two distinct elements to it: The Cardiff Law School Innocence Project, which deals with cases of long-term prisoners maintaining their innocence, and the general Pro Bono Scheme, which assists members of the community and vulnerable groups where legal aid is not available.

Set up in 2005, the Scheme enables our students to experience the law in action, work alongside volunteer legal professionals and develop transferable skills to add to their CVs.
