About us

The Ethnic Minorities Law Centre is a recognised Scottish charity and has been operating since 1991 as a non-profit making company limited by guarantee providing ethnic minority communities with access to professional services to address unmet legal needs. Based in Glasgow and governed by a voluntary Board of Directors, we are the only dedicated centre in Britain providing legal services exclusively to black and ethnic minority communities. Consequently we have developed specialist knowledge and experience in specific areas of the law, particularly discrimination and immigration. We therefore offer a unique range of legal services to ethnic minority communities who need help in accessing their rights and in redressing racial discrimination; potentially a model for national.

Our mission

Our ethos is firmly based in the principles of equal access and anti-racism. We were established to redress the unequal access to legal services experienced by black and ethnic minority communities in Glasgow and the surrounding areas.

Contact Information

We have two offices based in Scotland’s largest cities, Glasgow and Edinburgh. We operate on an appointment system as well as operating a telephone advice line. If you would prefer an interpreter to be arranged for an appointment please ask reception to arrange this for you. We also carry out outreach community work in the form of surgeries and information sessions as and when required.
