The Pottle Centre, a non-profit organization providing an inclusive space for individuals impacted by mental illness and other vulnerable groups, is seeking legal expertise to support its Board. As the Centre does not currently have a lawyer on its executive committee, they are looking for members of the legal profession who may be interested in volunteering their time and skills.

The Pottle Centre has inquired with the Law Society about existing channels through which volunteer opportunities are communicated to its members. Drawing from other professional experiences, the Centre is interested in whether legal professionals can track Continuing Professional Development (CPD) credits for volunteer roles, such as board positions or governance-related contributions.

Members of the legal community who are willing to assist or can offer guidance on how these volunteer opportunities are shared are encouraged to visit the Pottle Centre’s website: https://pottlecentre.org/.

Your support would be greatly appreciated by the organization and the community it serves. For more information, please contact the Pottle Centre at (709) 753-2143.
