Here are the statistics from April 2017 to March 2018.
- There were 229 active clinics across England and Wales in the LawWorks Clinics Network on 31 March 2018 (which has increased to 244 clinics as of December 2018);
- There were 59,902 individual enquiries at clinics in the period between April 2017 and March 2018, a 2% increase on the previous year;
- 39,937 clients were given legal advice at a clinic, a 14% increase from last year;
- A further 12,250 clients were given general information or signposted or referred to other services;
