Get free advice and support through court.
We give free, confidential, practical help and emotional support for people going through court in Devon and Cornwall and into life beyond.
People often arrive at court alone, feeling powerless, trapped and terrified. We are free, and independent of the system. We sit down and listen. We build trust and use our knowledge and connections to find solutions to complicated situations.
