Free help with Environmental issues and the law

CEN has been informed about an organisation that provides free legal advice and support to residents and community organisations involved in Environmental issues.

The Environmental Law Foundation (ELF) is the national UK charity founded in 1992 that helps people use the law to protect and improve their local environment and quality of life. Through our network of specialist lawyers and consultants across the UK, we provide free guidance and continuing support to those in need of assistance.

ELF also provides education and training, promotes lectures, conferences and seminars, produces publications and encourages policy development. Above all, we provide a voice for communities and individuals.

The website is: www.elflaw.org/site
