Once again, the University of Strathclyde Law Clinic have been recognised for its services and engagement with the local community by the Evening Times Community Champion Awards 2012. The Law Clinic were successfully shortlisted for the award for the Glasgow Central and West area for a third year in a row and this year, we achieved runner up status in the awards ceremony held in August. At the very least this was an opportunity to raise awareness of the problem of access to justice in the local community. However, as Donald Nicolson, Law Clinic Director commented, “As ever, it was an honour just to be shortlisted from amongst so many other commendable contributions to the community. To be chosen as runners up, however, is even gratifying. We have just reached the milestone of our 1000th case and we looks forward to growing from strength to strength in the lead up to our 10th year.”
