Virtual talk: 'How Hard Should It Be To Reverse A Miscarriage Of Justice?’
Thursday 13 March 2025, 2.10pm-2.55pm, Y12 & Y13
Attend this session to learn from an expert in miscarriages of justice and use your knowledge to decide whether a young person should succeed with his campaign for justice against the odds when he has not committed an offence.
You will learn about recent changes to compensation following a successful appeal against a wrongful conviction and evaluate whether justice really can be served under the current regime.
