Scottish first for Strathclyde in law competition – University of Strathclyde Press Release (3 April)
The University of Strathclyde has become the first university in Scotland to win a prestigious award for widening access to legal services. Strathclyde Law School won the Best Contribution by a Law School award in the LawWorks & Attorney General Student Awards. The University won its award for the work of its Law Clinic, which offers free legal advice and representation to members of the public who do not qualify for Legal Aid but still cannot afford professional fees. The Law Clinic is the only service of its kind in Scotland and Strathclyde is the first Scottish university to win in the LawWorks & Attorney General Student Awards. Law schools in Scotland and Northern Ireland were invited to enter the awards for the first time this year.
