Hougang temple to house first community law centre under Pro Bono SG; aims to serve needy residents beyond providing legal help
The new Community Law Centre by Pro Bono SG, which will be launched on Jan 31 this year, is situated in front of Tian De Temple in Hougang.
Pro Bono SG will launch a new Community Law Centre at a Chinese temple in Hougang at the end of this month
The new centre will bring legal aid closer to the heartlands and work closely with social service agencies in the neighbourhood
Although the new centre is within the compound of a Chinese temple, the temple’s chairman believes that Singaporeans will not hesitate to use the centre’s services
Mr Richard Siaw, the ambassador for Pro Bono SG, hopes that more organisations will be open to housing such centres in future
