Self-help Kits
 
self-help kits

Caxton Legal Centre also publishes a number of self-help kits to practically assist people if they face certain legal issues.
Each self-help kit is designed as a step-by-step guide to the legal process and defines legal terms, outlines a person's rights and includes forms to be completed.

Hard copies of kits are provided free of charge through the Centre, although a donation towards production costs is appreciated.
