Save the IOW Law Centre

On the 30th June 2019 the Isle of Wight Council will pull the plug on the £70,000 funding the Law Centre receives to offer free, impartial and confidential advice and assistance to Islanders in relation to Housing matters including Housing Benefit issues, rent arrears, Court possession hearings and Preventing evictions on rented and owned accommodation.  Without funding the Law Centre faces closure and 12 staff face redundancy-the Island faces the loss of another vital service and will be faced with having to attend County Hall for advice under the Council’s new Advice Information and Guidance scheme! 

Lets save this service-we all need a service that is independent-we are hoping to raise as much as we can to plug the £70,000 gap to continue independently
