Scores of people with disabilities benefited from a range of justice services as Legal Aid Council took its series of justice fairs to the Claude Stewart Park in St Mary.
The event gave residents an opportunity to access legal advice, victim support, child diversion and restorative justice services, among others. Several government entities were also on hand to provide information and render assistance to the disabled community.
