The Children's Legal Centre has launched an exciting and innovative new website: www.lawstuff.org.uk

The website provides a wide range of information to young people about their legal rights and the laws affecting them.

The website contains information on the rights of young people and the laws that affect all aspects of their lives education, healthcare, discrimination, policing, age-based laws, leaving home and more. It also contains information for young people who are in care or leaving care and for migrant children.

The information on the website is presented in an accessible, interactive way, through questions and answers, a 'mythbusters' tool and case studies. The content, functionality and features of the website will be added to throughout the year, including through the addition of vodcasts.

Lawstuff was developed in recognition of the lack of legal information available that is specifically aimed at young people. The content and design of the website was informed by the views of a diverse group of young people, which the Centre gathered through a series of youth forums that were held across the country last year.
