Free legal advice

Date published: 01 September 2009


The Rochdale Legal Advice Partnership helps solve peoples problems which are central to their lives. These include: debt, consumer issues, benefits, housing, legal matters, employment and immigration.

The Project will provide a much needed form filling, advice and support service.

Three providers of legal advice in Rochdale have come together to deliver this project. These are:

  • Rochdale CAB
  • Rochdale MBC Advice Services
  • Rochdale Law Centre

The aim of this partnership is to create a network of legal advice referral services.

The Rochdale Legal Advice Partnership also have partner agencies which are:

  • Springhill Hospice
  • HMP Buckley Hall
  • Rochdale Victim Support
  • Rochdale PCT
  • Rochdale Boroughwide Housing Priority Area Team (Lower Falinge/Kirkholt areas only)

Clients of the partners/partner agencies will be able to access the service via a referral or at one of our outreach sessions.

The project is funded by the Big Lottery – Advice Plus (BIG) funds.
