We regularly brief the media on the underlying issues relating to cases and the inquest system and are also often able to provide more extensive briefing documents to assist with articles and programmes.
Broadcast and print media have covered many of the issues raised by our cases. We are quoted extensively in both the local and national newspapers and we frequently give radio and television interviews.
Media enquiries should be directed initially to our office on 020 7263 1111 or by using the Media contact form.
