What Firm Friends funds.

 

Your donation contributes directly to fund vital services. In 2024, we supported hundreds of solicitors and delivered over 800 awards – including therapy grants, career coaching, and emergency financial aid.

Firm Friends - Help is in demand

Demand is rising fast:

 

  • Mental health referrals 178%
  • Support enquiries from 9 to 25 per month
  • 88% of clients are under 60; 36% under 40
  • Career support needs are growing, driven by
    redundancy, burnout, and change

 

That’s why your support matters. The culture and clarity you create inside your firm, through policies, line management, and open dialogue, determines whether your colleagues access help early or wait until crisis hits.
