Camden Community Law Centre ‘horrified’ at Council funding cuts

Last week Camden Council confirmed a 60% cut to the local Law Centre's funding, which will lead to loss of services

Camden Community Law Centre, based in Kentish Town, has issued a statement expressing their horror at the axing of Council funding for their housing and welfare benefits advice services. These unfortunate news of Council cuts come ahead of more sweeping central government cuts to the legal aid scheme as a whole, which are expected to come into force next year.

Camden Community Law Centre has been a longstanding community resource for the people of the inner London borough for nearly 40 years. Despite the cuts, it remains committed to serving local residents, and Council funding for its employment and immigration advice services will continue.
