New law building

Since 2009, students, staff and alumni have been busy fundraising for a bigger home for the Kent Law Clinic and a new Moot Court.

On Monday 15 June, building work for the new Kent Law Clinic started on the lawn between Eliot Extension and Rutherford College.

The new ‘The Wigoder Law Building’ is planned to open in June 2016 and benefits include:

  • Improved learning facilities for students, including ‘The Kennedy Wong Mooting Chamber’ where its users will argue moot points of law in a simulated courtroom scenario.
  • The ability to provide even more free legal advice and representation to those in the community who cannot afford to pay.
