Travers Smith to launch junior solicitors fund

The fund aims to broaden entry to the legal profession, covering the full training and assessment costs of successful applicants.

Travers Smith LLP has announced it is collaborating with a host of city law firms to launch the Social Welfare Solicitors Qualification Fund (SWSQF), in a bid to tackle the deficit in junior social welfare solicitors.

The cross-sector and nationwide fund targets dedicated social welfare legal workers by providing them with the funding to train and qualify as social welfare solicitors.
