Pro bono disability-rights advocate needed for Ruby's case in England

Ruby is facing wrongful dismissal after reporting unsafe conditions and can't afford a lawyer; a disability-rights advocate willing to review the case for free could make the difference.

I'm facing wrongful dismissal after reporting unsafe conditions, with a hearing on November. I earn too much to qualify for legal aid on paper, but not nearly enough to pay a lawyer's retainer. I'm looking for a qualified disability-rights advocate licensed in England who might be able to review my documents, prepare me for the hearing, or take the case pro bono or on a reduced fee. I've organized my documents chronologically, and I'll share them with the lawyer who agrees to help. I can travel to your office in Sheffield or meet online. I understand that the time of a lawyer is valuable, and I'm deeply grateful for any help or for suggestions of organizations that could assist. I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

                  your post was clear and honest. After 28 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
