Magistrates in the Community Group

The Magistrates in the Community Group is a national scheme supported and funded by the Magistrates Association and the Department of Constitutional Affairs.

Suffolk Magistrates Courts have trained Magistrate presenters who are available throughout the local area to explain their work in the Courts, run sentencing exercises and encourage participants to visit a working Court. All school students receive a Certificate of Attendance for inclusion in their Record of Achievement file.

The scheme is open to all age groups and can include schools, colleges, leisure groups, employers, hospitals, youth groups, churches, etc.

The presentations are entirely free of charge, including booklets, photocopying and much more.

For more information on the scheme please contact your local Magistrates' Court's office or The Suffolk Magistrates Association Secretary
