Helping to make a difference
Social mobility provides direct access to a broader, more diverse pool of talent that drives energy and innovation. In the crowded legal profession, these are recognised differentiators for top-performing firms.
The AS Foundation helps realise the ambitions contained within Corporate Social Responsibility statements, by removing some of the restrictive financial barriers that smart, ambitious, and positive aspiring solicitors can face to a career in the legal profession.
If you are an experienced legal professional looking to give something back, we would also be very happy to hear from you.
The AS Foundation is proud to have these top performing law firms, in-house legal teams and corporates to help make a difference and increase social mobility in the legal profession.

What our supporters say
"The ASF is an extremely supportive organisation and has been critical to my being able to pursue a career in law. Barriers are not always as big as imagined. Sometimes, with help, they are simply small obstacles. The ASF can be that help."
"The Aspiring Solicitors Foundation is breaking financial barriers that students such as myself face. It is fantastic that I have been supported by the AS Foundation and I urge students in a similar position to apply for financial support."
"I graduated from University of Law in November 2021. The laptop granted by ASF was really helpful during my degree. When COVID hit it helped me do my coursework at home and I would have really struggled to get any work done without it."
"I applied to the foundation and was granted support which enabled me to turn up feeling like I belonged, which eased some of my biggest worries and gave me confidence."
