 The University of Bristol Innocence Project (UoBIP), the first dedicated
Innocence Project in the UK, is an extra-curricula pro bono legal clinic which teaches law through working on real cases of prisoners maintaining innocence. Established in January 2005 by Dr
Michael Naughton, the UoBIP, which is also the founding member of the Innocence Network UK (INUK), is a collaborative venture of undergraduate
and postgraduate law students working under academic supervision and guidance, where appropriate, from pro bono criminal lawyers, forensic scientists, and others.
It is important to note that the UoBIP is NOT a campaign or victim support organisation and does NOT give legal advice, which will always be given by practicing lawyers where appropriate. Rather,
student members investigate individual cases either University of Bristol
