BPP TRIBUNAL
FRIENDS
IF YOU’RE INVOLVED
IN EMPLOYMENT
TRIBUNAL HEARINGS,
YOU MAY FIND IT
USEFUL TO HAVE
SOMEONE TO HELP
YOU
WHO ARE WE?
BPP Tribunal Friends is a group of volunteer law students from one of
Britain’s top law schools, aiming to provide you with help and support
during your tribunal hearings; however, legal advice will not be given.
Although our students are not yet qualified as lawyers, they have had a
substantial legal education and will soon enter the legal profession as
trainee barristers and solicitors.
HOW CAN WE HELP YOU?
If you have a hearing date in the Employment Tribunal and would like
the assistance of Tribunal Friends, please email the Student Directors
on the email address below, providing your name and the date and
venue of the hearing. We will then try to recruit student volunteers to
accompany you to your hearing.
Your Tribunal Friend will support you in your case on your hearing day.
This would involve taking notes of your case, finding relevant
documents and helping you prepare your case, as well as helping to
alleviate your fears and concerns. This could enable you to concentrate
on the presentation of your case by having a separate note-taker as
well as to ensure you have a more succinct record of proceedings. BPP
Tribunal Friends is a voluntary service and completely free of charge.
