What is a Legal Observer?
Legal Observers are an essential part of the support we provide at protests. Whether they’re handing out key advice on bust cards, or finding witnesses for arrests, legal observers help to ensure that people protesting don’t face the legal system alone.
If you complete this training you will be expected to become part of a wider national solidarity network of legal observers. You will be expected to volunteer as a legal observer at least once every few months, including supporting a wide variety of protests.
You can read more about what a legal observer is in this guide.
When is it happening?
To participate in this LO training, you must have attended one of our Know Your Rights trainings.
This LO training will be happening online, via Zoom, over two sessions: 2pm-5.30pm on Sunday 17th November AND 2pm-5.30pm on Sunday 24th November 2024. Please note you MUST attend both days to complete the training.
