The Centre for Criminal Appeals is a new “access to justice” initiative, currently in its pilot phase. As a non-profit, specialised law practice, the Centre for Criminal Appeals aims to address the drastic shortage of quality legal representation for prisoners seeking to make applications to the Criminal Cases Review Commission and the Court of Appeal. The Criminal Defence Initiative is a partnership between The Centre for Criminal Appeals and a cohort of universities in England and Wales that aims to train the next generation of lawyers who will prosecute and defend people accused of crimes, and transform the way such cases are approached, both by the system and by individual lawyers.
