Sarah McKeown

What do you do?

Barrister at Field Court Chambers

Why did you get involved in LLST?

Through Kate Pasfield, who I have known for years.  In addition to that, I have worked with and been instructed by Law Centres for many years.

What is your favourite part of the role?

Being able to keep afloat organisations that would otherwise have to close without support from the LLST.

What do you hope to see in the future for LLST/ the agencies we support?

I would hope that agencies and organisations we have helped support will cease to need charitable help and be able to proceed as self-sufficient. I would also like to see raised awareness of the important work that the agencies that we support do, and the need for them to be properly funded.

When you are not working or volunteering what can you be found doing?

Running, playing the piano and travelling.
