Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) legal outreach work includes encouraging organisations to refer cases to them.
These referrals must fall within 10 key areas. They are particularly keen to hear from you if you are dealing with cases, within these areas, so that EHRC can consider providing assistance or using the case as an evidence base to inform the future direction of its legal work.
EHRC are also interested in any cases which are in line with its strategic litigation policy and business plan .
Legal representatives can call to discuss a referral with Eleanor Williams 07812 674216 eleanor.williams@equalityhumanrights.com or the Lawyers' Referral Helpline on 0161 829 8407 (Tues to Thurs, 10am to 1pm) for England and Wales.
The Lawyers' Referral helpline can also be accessed on-line at legalrequest@equalityhumanrights.com.
Note: securing assistance normally take upwards of 4 weeks so please contact them as soon as you can.
