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.

You can read more about what a legal observer is in this guide.

This LO training will be happening online, via Zoom, over two days: Saturday 21st 10am-1:30pm & Sunday 22nd 1:30pm -5:00pm Please note you MUST attend both days to complete the training.
