Book training online  You can use our new website to look at our training calendar, commission our training, read about our Youth Rights Trainers and the courses they have developed, and book courses online. As well as courses on the rights and entitlements of separated asylum-seeking children, we run training on access to education, the rights of EU national children in the UK, supporting undocumented families and more. See the difference that we have made this year  Coram Children’s Legal Centre has provided legal advice and representation to children and families for over 35 years, and it can be nice to ring the changes! We've been compiling information on the difference we have made in the last year. If we have helped you or helped you to help others in recent years why not let us know? We would love to share feedback with staff members, so if you've got some then please do email mcp@coramclc.org.uk and tell us what you think.
