Welcome to the Pan-African Law Society (PALS)!
PALS was founded in 2014 under the vision of “Law for Development”. Our mission is to broaden accessibility to the legal profession for African and Afro-Caribbean students in Leicester. Your time at University is a great time for you to grow holistically; our society is predicated on developing its members socially, academically and professionally. After a dormancy in the pandemic, we would love for you to be a part of our revival year!
Considering a career in law can feel daunting – particularly without the connections or knowledge on how to establish one. Our goal is to support African and Afro-Caribbean students that plan to practice law in the UK or back home – and to provide you with community whilst doing so. This year, we plan to run a host of events, socials and workshops that will enrich your time at Leicester and prepare you for life afterwards!
Follow us on our socials to stay up to date with all of our amazing events! Our overarching themes for the school year goes as follows:
