A Launceston Community Legal Centre program · formerly Legal Literacy Volunteers

Local people helping locals

The Legal Help Hub’s future depends on renewed funding. Act now to save it.

$300,000 a year for 5 years secures a team of 50 trained volunteers, including a coordinator and a part-time solicitor, delivering over 2,000 hours of free, place-based, face-to-face support every year across northern and north-east Tasmania.

  • $5 returned for every $1 invested
  • $1.5M+ in potential savings each year
  • $100k in volunteer time each year

  • Connects people to legal, community and adult literacy services
  • Helps people early, before problems become disputes
  • Builds understanding of the law in local communities

In your community: Launceston, Longford, Deloraine, Beaconsfield, George Town, Ravenswood, Newnham, Scottsdale and St Helens.

A partnership between the Launceston Community Legal Centre, Libraries Tasmania, 26TEN and Neighbourhood Houses.

I call on the Tasmanian Government to:

  • Continue to support and promote the Legal Help Hub
