In this episode, Alma-Constance and Lucinda look back at Series 4 where they’ve been talking to people working in the legal system who explain how laws affect us in everyday life, particularly for children and young people. The 12 episodes cover:
- the new Online Safety Act,
- alternative ways to resolve disputes, and why the Old Bailey is so famous,
- how the law affects children when someone dies and if the king has to obey the law,
- the role of ethics in law, how human rights can be used to protect children and the difference between human rights and civil liberties,
- why law centres were set up and how they support people in the community,
- how to practice law without going to university; and
- the most important IP right that affects young people.
