Do you want to make a difference to the mental health of the legal community?
We are recruiting four new trustees to strengthen our board and develop our work in supporting and promoting mental health in the legal community and improving the culture in law. It is an exciting time to join the LawCare board, as we have just launched our Life in the Law 2025 report, deepening the understanding the culture and practice of law and how this impacts mental health. The board will be developing our new strategy to take the recommendations of the report forward.
What are we looking for?
We are looking for Trustees from across the UK, Channel Islands and Isle of Man; from all branches of the legal sector and a range of roles, both legal and support; with the time and energy to devote to LawCare. A strong commitment to the value of mental health and a healthy workplace culture is essential. You will play a vital role in providing leadership, scrutiny and support to ensure delivery of our mission. We are particularly interested in hearing from people with skills and experience in at least one of the following areas:
- Income generation
- Legal education, practice and regulation
- Management and supervision in the workplace
- Issues that affect the mental health and wellbeing of people in the legal sector
- Social mobility, inclusion and diversity
- Risk Management
- Perspectives of the users of LawCare’s support
- Legal practice at the Bar
However, we are keen to hear from anyone who has the skills and expertise to take on this role and would like to work with us to drive change in legal education, practice and regulation to create a mentally healthy legal community.
