The aim: Equal access to pro bono help in regional areas

The plan: Establish partnerships between city firms & regional firms

How did that work out?

“Although there has been limited casework undertaken as a result of these collaborations to date, it is expected that, over the course of time, with ongoing monitoring and fostering of the relationships, the provision of pro bono legal services will be enhanced in these RRR areas.” Annual Report 2009-10

“Although there has been limited casework undertaken as a result of these collaborations to date, it is expected that, over the course of time and with continued monitoring the model provided by the pilot arrangements can be used by other RRR firms to assist their clients on a pro bono basis.” Annual Report 2010-11

“…it wasn’t working at all…”

What would we do differently?
