The Personal Support Unit, a charity providing free, independent assistance to individuals facing court alone, has changed its name to Support Through Court, following an extensive rebrand. 

The change coincides with the charity’s 18th birthday. Support Through Court helps litigants in person sort through paperwork and organise case notes, giving them the confidence to represent themselves in court. In the year to March 2019, it helped individuals on more than 75,000 occasions, with 60% of the cases being family law-related. It operates from 23 courts in 19 different cities.
