Bar Council Survey

This is a short survey to gather information about what Pro Bono work the Bar is currently doing. At the moment we have no way of knowing the amount of Pro Bono work provided by the Bar. It is important for us to understand what the Bar is doing and the pressures that are faced by those undertaking this kind of work. This will enable Bar Council to better support and promote the Bar both domestically and internationally.
This survey should take under 5 minutes to complete.
