About Greater Manchester Law Centre
Greater Manchester Law Centre is a charity set up by local lawyers and community activists to provide free legal advice to the community across the region. They are based in Levenshulme in South Manchester but take clients from Rochdale to Reddish, from Wigan to Wythenshawe, and all places in between!
Access to legal advice is not guaranteed and can be a struggle for many people – this is particularly the case for those that are vulnerable. It is estimated that across Greater Manchester over 600,000 cannot afford access to a solicitor and fall within the “Justice Gap.”
In 2025, GMLC received over 21,000 enquiries, supported 10,600 people with their legal issues and took on over 1600 cases. They undertake a full range of advice and case support and advocacy for the cases they take on.
GMLC are team of 14 advice staff of whom half are solicitors, with 2 trainee solicitors and 5 other advice staff and caseworkers. They specialise in social welfare law, specifically housing law, welfare rights, employment and discrimination and public law.
GMLC also promote and support pro bono advice, and run clinics with solicitor partners in community care, civil litigation and family law.
