The Solicitors' Charity - Supporting the wellbeing of solicitors.
Our vision is to be here for all solicitors and their dependants, to help and support their wellbeing in times of need and beyond, so that they can thrive. Our mission is to provide personalised support for emotional, physical, professional, and financial wellbeing.
Supporting you, since 1858
We may have been known by a few different names in our history (The Solicitors’ Benevolent Association and SBA being the most recent) but our purpose, since 1858, has never changed. Solicitors dedicate their careers to supporting others, but when life takes an unexpected turn, it’s okay to ask for help. The Solicitors’ Charity provides confidential, personalised support to help you through difficult times with emotional, financial, physical, and professional wellbeing support.
Professional Wellbeing
Navigating your career in law can be complex, whether you're re-entering the workforce, facing redundancy, or considering a new direction. We offer personalised career coaching, financial support for essentials like laptops and interview expenses, and access to expert advice on regulatory and employment matters.
Emotional Wellbeing
Life as a solicitor can be demanding, and maintaining good mental health is just as important as supporting others. If you're feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or struggling emotionally, we’re here to help. Through our trusted partners, we offer free, confidential support, including counselling, therapy, and clinical assessments to ensure you get the right help when you need it.
Physical Wellbeing
If physical illness or disability is impacting your work or home life, we’re here to support you. Our tailored wellbeing packages include access to occupational health assessments, specialist equipment funding, and financial help for therapy, mobility aids, or home adaptations.
Financial Wellbeing
Our Wellbeing & Grants team offers tailored support, including grants for living costs, assistance with urgent repairs, and help with moving expenses. We work with trusted partners to provide confidential, non-judgmental financial guidance to help you regain stability and confidence.
Play Your Part
Play your part in supporting solicitors' wellbeing through The Solicitors’ Charity. Your contributions, whether through individual donations, donating unclaimed balances, volunteering, or fundraising, help provide essential support across emotional, financial, physical, and professional wellbeing. Together, we can make a change.
