Student Centre


Supporting the needs and aspirations of law students is an important part of the SBL’s work and vision.  We recognise that the needs and concerns of students centre on questions of access to the legal profession:
  • Academic support
  • Opportunities to meet and interact with practitioners
  • Work experience placements and internships
  • Advice on securing training contracts and pupillages
  • Career advice, counselling and planning.
Becoming a student member of the Society of Black Lawyers represents a positive step towards addressing the needs of law students.  As a student member, you will have access to the following online facilities with our Law Student Centre:
  • Student Advisory Service (SAS)
  • Law Student Support Group
  • Public Interest Law & Policy – online volunteering opportunities
  • Careers and legal skills development workshops and seminars
