.page-id-7504

As part of BRAG’s ongoing commitment to strengthening communities and promoting initiatives of a charitable nature, we continue to explore new ways to connect our members with services that make a meaningful difference in their lives. For many years, our Pantry sessions have provided a valuable opportunity for members to meet organisations offering support across a range of needs. This March, we are proud to announce that Fife Law Centre is having an outreach session.

Based in Lochgelly, Fife Law Centre is a dedicated team of solicitors who provide free legal guidance and representation to residents across Fife who may otherwise be unable to access legal support. Their work focuses on helping the most vulnerable individuals navigate complex legal matters that can significantly impact their wellbeing.

On Thursday, 5 March, representatives from Fife Law Centre will be available during the Pantry session between 12:00 pm and 1:00 pm. During this time, members can seek guidance on a wide range of legal issues, including:

  • Threats of eviction, repossession, and other housing matters
  • Problems with rent or mortgage payments, including arrears
  • Benefits and welfare appeals or tribunals
  • Power of Attorney and Wills
  • Compensation claims for victims of crime or sexual abuse
  • Low-level employment issues, such as unpaid salary

Fife Law Centre works in partnership with several services throughout Fife, should a matter fall outside their remit, they are well positioned to refer individuals to the appropriate organisation for further support.

If you are unable to attend this outreach session but wish to discuss a legal matter with Fife Law Centre, you can contact them direct on 01592 786710 or via email at [email protected] 

At BRAG, we remain committed to bringing the right people together to build resilience and opportunity across our communities. Welcoming Fife Law Centre to our Pantry sessions is another example of this mission in action, ensuring our members have access to the essential advice and assistance they need.
