BPP student societies podcast: legal aid and access to justice



Legal aid and the law

It was with massive pleasure that, after a morning looking at the corporate strategy of Tesco as part of my MBA, I managed to make it to go to the BPP Law School at Holborn. There, I managed to bump into, by accident, Ray Stewart who has made a massive, beneficial impact on me personally as Learning Support Officer for BPP. His role at our University College is enormous, and it never fails to amaze me how much he gets done on behalf of all of us.

Our team of six podcasters (aside from me) was meticulously prepared, and knew their subjects backwards. We appeared to enjoy recording them, so much so we’ll be doing some more shortly, we hope. The podcasters are all students at BPP, and happen to be doing either the Graduate Diploma in Law or the Legal Practice Course prior to their training contracts.

In this final podcast, for the time-being, we discuss whether the legal aid cuts are a big deal or not, but in a wide-ranging discussion we go onto discuss whether it’s possible to be a self-litigant these days and what the point of a solicitor is. We hope you enjoy listening to the podcast as much as we enjoyed making them.

The podcasts are a joint initiative between the BPP student societies, the BPP Commercial Awareness Society and the Legal Awareness Society. The views expressed in this podcast are personal views of the student contributors, and cannot be taken to be legal advice of any description. They do not represent any official views of BPP.

Have a nice weekend. Please follow @legalaware on Twitter, the official Twitter thread of the Legal Awareness Society, one of the student societies at BPP.  You can find details about the Legal Awareness Society and the Commercial Awareness Society on the official BPP students website here.
