Be part of Pro Bono Week 2023! 

Pro Bono Week takes place across the UK this year from 6th to 10th November. Through events and comms it is an opportunity to recognise, showcase and discuss the voluntary contribution of the legal profession in giving free legal help to those in need. 

For the latest updates follow @ProBonoWeekUK on X (Twitter) and LinkedIn. 

Arrange an event 

Pro Bono Week is a great time to arrange an event to promote or discuss pro bono. Many events are external occasions organised in partnership with others, while others are internal events for colleagues at an organisation.

There are three suggested themes this year: 

▪ Changing lives through pro bono 

▪ Maximising the impact of pro bono 

▪ Pro bono within ESG: from climate to sustainable development 

For help planning an event visit probonoweek.org.uk/event-plans 

Share content on social media 

Pro Bono Week is a perfect time to post on social media or your website about your commitment to pro bono, or to thank your volunteers, or to showcase a particular pro bono lawyer or project. #ProBonoWeek
