Supporting Community Projects

Together we are Forbes

Forbes Solicitors is genuinely committed to being a legal firm at the heart of the community, because that's who we are and that's where we want to be. We are very active in supporting local projects, which benefit the communities in which we have offices.

As a firm we have set up The Forbes Foundation which provides financial support to children, and their families, who are in need, by reason of ill health, disability, and/or financial hardship within England and Wales, but predominantly the North of England, by providing facilities, equipment and monetary grants.

Other projects range from the traditional fundraising activities and pro bono work to long term projects where we work in partnership with organisations to enhance our local communites.
