We provide workers in the legal and community sectors with the resources and information they need to identify exploitative products and business practices and help their clients fight back.
Our purpose is to make life easier for people experiencing vulnerability and disadvantage. We use our skills in the law, financial counselling, policy and campaigning to make consumer markets fair.
