THE Community Legal Services Partnership is soon to be launched in Watford.

The scheme, which was launched nationally on April 3, is to make legal advice more accessible for people in the borough, and aims to ensure that they can enforce their rights effectively, as well as knowing where to seek help.

The Partnership is being supported by the Legal Services Commission, Watford Council's Right and Advice Team and local voluntary groups including the Citizens Advice Bureau.

A Steering Group will compile an information directory as easy reference for people looking for help with anything from debt problems to benefit entitlement.
