Become a Friend of Public Law today.
Help challenge injustice and advance the frontiers of public law.

Every day, people face unfair decisions by public bodies. All too often, the state acts unlawfully which can lead to devastating consequences for the lives of ordinary people. Without help, these people often lack the means to challenge government decisions and hold the state to account. Unlawful decisions that go unchallenged can be repeated, leading to more people suffering, and a government unconstrained by checks and balances.  

That’s where you come in. Friends of Public Law brings together a group of supporters behind PLP’s mission to hold the state to account. By donating to Friends of Public Law, you will become PLP’s partner – making a meaningful investment into PLP’s future, while gaining access to exclusive professional and social opportunities for Friends of Public Law. With your help, we will continue to challenge unlawful decisions and drive change to ensure future policy and legislation is fair, rational, and just.  

Your Impact

Friends of Public Law commit to making a monthly contribution of £50 to £250, or £600 to £3,000 annually. At a time when securing funding is increasingly challenging for charities, you will be making a meaningful, long term investment in the long-term future of PLP. Your donation could help fund a broad range of our work.  

• £600 could cover the costs of two PLP research interviews with people with lived experience of injustice, amplifying the voices of the people suffering from unlawful decisions and policies 

• £1,500 could pay for a PLP solicitor to host a one-day training session for grassroots organisations, empowering ordinary people from marginalised communities to use the law as a tool for change 

• £3,000 could fully fund a free-to-attend Public Law webinar, bringing together lawyers, activists, and people with lived experience to confront injustice and make systemic change
