The first cohort of Justice First Fellows has qualified as solicitors. The Legal Education Foundation’s innovative Justice First Fellowship accepted nine solicitor Fellows in 2014, and all have now completed their legal training at some of the country’s leading social welfare organisations, including Public Law Project, Coram Children’s Legal Centre, and Coventry Law Centre. Another nine Fellows are due to qualify as solicitors in early 2018; a further 15 will qualify in late 2018/early 2019, including the first two barrister Fellows.
