LawCare revamps

New website for charity

LawCare, the charity that helps lawyers and families of lawyers affected by alcohol, drug abuse and stress, has relaunched its website. It now has a search facility and a section on helping colleagues, friends or family members who may be experiencing problems. The helplines are available via a drop-down panel on every page, and there is a complete repository of all LawCare’s information packs covering a range of subjects. The site can now be e-mailed or posted on Facebook or Twitter.
