The Bird of Prey Project Brief Description of Organisation We are a registered charity set up to protect wild birds of prey and their habitats through nature recovery, community education and research. Our conservation ethos concerns the protection of local habitats, declining species and raising awareness of wild species and how they interact in an environment. We are also committed to raising the standard for raptor welfare in the UK, and ending cruelty. Visit Website Full Description of Organisation Our Mission at The Bird of Prey Project is to monitor and conserve wild birds of prey; inspire a passion for wildlife and its protection to varied communities and promote high standards for modern raptor welfare. Our charitable objectives are predominately funded by our multiple award winning visitor centre, where nature-based learning for all is at the core of what we believe in. From inspiring daily flying displays with a focus on the native species of raptor we can protect from our doorstep, to face to face handling experiences with our birds – we work to inspire a passion for wildlife that for some may not be found in a book or TV documentary. Home to just over 20 resident birds, our senior keepers and bird team volunteers work hard every day to provide the highest quality of life, modelling and building a new system of modern day welfare which we hope will lead to supporting new national guidance for raptor care in captivity in years to come. Nature recovery begins with education, and engaging diverse communities with wildlife and the small changes we can make to protect species and ecosystems for years to come is hugely important to our mission. We believe in making education accessible – through sensory, immersive experience, outdoor nature-based learning and face to face inspiration. Children’s conservation workshops, school practical visits, remote learning through zoom with the owls and specialised visits for adults and young people with additional needs make up some of our work. Our Cavity nesting species programme operates in our local region around Bath and surrounding areas, through which we partner with land managers and farmers to protect and restore the ancient British Grassland that some of our amber listed species such as Tawny Owls and European Kestrels depend on. Through this programme we also install and monitor nest boxes where applicable, providing new safe nesting habitats in areas where traditional ancient hollow oak trees may have been removed. The Rehabilitation Hospital is a specialist wild raptor care referral unit part of our site here at The Project, and we advise many cases of wild raptor rehabilitation throughout the UK, providing high level care and integration back to the wild where possible. Through this line of work the charity also operates multiple research projects, including studies into toxin presence in wild birds of prey and the effect of Biomagnification on the wider ecosystem.

Previous Job Next Job About LawWorks What we do LawWorks is the operating name of the Solicitors Pro Bono Group. We are a charity, and our aim is to enable access to justice through supporting and developing the contribution of legal pro bono. With support from the Law Society of England and Wales, we encourage, facilitate and celebrate pro bono across the solicitor profession and at law schools in England and Wales. Who we work with We work primarily with solicitors (firms and in-house teams), and also with law schools and law students, and other legal and non-legal volunteers and organisations. LawWorks has around 150 member organisations including some of the largest City firms and international firms with an office in London, national, regional and local firms, in-house teams, law schools and charities. Who we are LawWorks is a relatively small organisation with 18 members of staff (5 full-time) and a small team of volunteers and interns. We operate a flexible working policy, with several members of staff working hybrid, or where appropriate, from home. We are a busy and (for our size) complex charity, with a friendly team, a positive ethos and a commitment to doing all we can to ensure LawWorks is a strong and efficient organisation and a great place to work. Our projects There are a number of key strands to our work to support and facilitate pro bono: • we support a growing network of around 300 local independent pro bono advice clinics across England and Wales. We work with lawyers, advice agencies, charities and others to establish or develop new clinics, and provide ongoing information and support, training and resources, for clinic volunteers and coordinators; • our Not-for-Profits Programme facilitates the provision of free legal advice for smaller charities and not-for-profit organisations, supported by volunteer lawyers from LawWorks’ members; • our Secondary Specialisation Programme supports the development of more ‘in- depth’ pro bono in areas of social welfare law. This currently includes an unpaid wages project and ‘Voices for Families’, with the charity Together for Short Lives, supporting parents and carers of children with life-limiting conditions; • we support collaborative projects including: Pro Bono Connect: a project which facilitates barristers and solicitors working together on pro bono cases; the Domestic Abuse Response Alliance and IP Pro Bono. • we have launched new online tools and digital platforms including a website called ‘Free Legal Answers’ and the Pro Bono Portal UK (with Justice Connect, an Australian access to justice charity). In addition to encouraging and supporting pro bono delivery, we also work to address barriers to justice and to provide a ‘policy voice’ for pro bono - for example, working to address regulatory and other barriers to pro bono volunteering, and working with our members and others to influence policy on legal aid and other aspects of access to justice. The role Our experience in the different regions in England and Wales has shown the value of having staff based locally to support pro bono initiatives, develop new pro bono opportunities and to increase engagement from the local legal profession. This role will include helping to develop and support your own set of clinics, building on existing relationships in the Southwest or North of England. You will work with our members and the local advice sector to support the development of new pro bono clinics to meet unmet legal needs. We take an innovative, tailored approach to the support we provide, and you will provide one-to one support for individual clinics, allowing you to identify and address need, providing help with insurance, regulatory queries, finding volunteers and access to online tools. A small part of the role (1 day per week) will involve working closely with the part-time Engagement & Training Officer (Wales) focusing on expanding stakeholder engagement to increase the number of independent legal advice clinics in Wales and promote pro bono involvement by the legal profession. You will work to identify and engage new stakeholders, develop training sessions and support impact monitoring. This role will also work closely with the Clinic Support and Development Officer (Wales), who acts as the first point of contact for guidance and support for clinics in Wales. Key priorities for this role will be: • To provide guidance and support to independent pro bono clinics registered with the LawWorks Clinics Network in the Southwest or North of England; • To increase the number of individuals in Southwest or North England provided with free legal advice at clinics in the LawWorks Clinics Network by identifying opportunities for new pro bono advice clinics, supporting local stakeholders to develop new services to meet unmet legal needs in their area; • To support and grow pro bono volunteering and LawWorks’ membership (e.g., law firms and in-house legal teams); • To identify the training needs of LawWorks’ members, clinics and their volunteers in Southwest or North England, working with colleagues to arrange regional training and other events. • To support the Engagement & Training Officer (Wales) with the delivery of the training plan in Wales. • To lead on communications with LawWorks’ members, clinics and their volunteers in Southwest or North England.

A background in the legal or advice sector will be an advantage, but not essential - training and support will be provided for someone from another sector who is passionate about pro bono and access to justice and willing to learn. Experience of managing multiple projects and seeing them through to completion will also be an advantage. The role offers variety, autonomy, the opportunity to help develop new initiatives from idea to launch, and a chance to support local communities and volunteer lawyers. The position will be predominantly home based, with some travel throughout the Southwest or North of England, and occasional travel to LawWorks’ office in central London. Primary purpose of role To increase the amount and quality of pro bono legal advice being delivered in the Southwest or North of England and Wales through legal advice clinics, working with the local legal profession, law schools, advice agencies and other stakeholders, to identify new pro bono opportunities and ways in which LawWorks can better support the delivery of pro bono. Key task areas and duties • To develop relationships with law firms, legal teams, free legal advice clinics and other relevant stakeholders to identify their needs, plans and priorities in relation to pro bono. • To facilitate sharing between stakeholders in the region to identify best practice, local opportunities for collaborative working and local training and support needs, and to assist in taking these forward. • Support LawWorks’ clinic development work in the region, in line with annual support and development targets. • As the first point of contact for our stakeholders in the Southwest or North, support clinics and members with troubleshooting queries, accessing resources and ensuring that contact information and website content related to their services is kept up to date. • To work with the wider LawWorks team to support member recruitment and the delivery of local engagement events. • To work with clinics in the region to support data collection, evaluation and impact assessment for internal and donor purposes and to inform policy. • To contribute to the overall development and running of LawWorks, undertaking any other tasks which may from time to time be required.
