Criminal Law Society

ULCLS was founded by our President, Naalini Nagpal and Vice-President, Harnoor Diyal

ULCLS aims to be a skills-driven community for students dedicated to criminal law, advocacy, and justice reform in the United Kingdom, Canada and the European Union. We are comitted to bridging the gap between theory and practice through hands-on learning and practical opportunities. Our mission is to deepen understanding of criminal responsibility, sentencing, rehabilitation, and restorative justice, while highlighting the vital role of Legal Aid, public interest law, and non-traditional legal career paths in advancing meaningful and corrective justice.
