Employers are given a short presentation, followed by a question and answer session, before going into court to see magistrates applying these skills in the daily work of the court. These sessions are designed to encourage employers to be supportive of employees who wish to become magistrates, and to highlight the importance of playing a part in their communities.

We also have an MIC team who will visit the workplace to make a similar presentation to employees, and are keen for business to contact us to arrange a presentation.

"It would be easy for MIC work to become routine – schools, community groups, colleges. We have learned to try to reach beyond the obvious. The MIC team thrives because it recognises that, like the magistracy, it needs to be relevant, and fully engaged with our whole community."
