About this contract

This Research is to commission an independent evaluation of the new Legal Support grant programme, which will be managed by the Access to Justice Foundation on behalf of MoJ.

This system should empower individuals to resolve legal issues as early as possible, understand their rights and options, and engage confidently with services to suit their needs. .
