How RLAS operates

RLAS offers a “drop-in” advice clinic. You do not need to make an appointment.

Note: Due to the number of clients that come to our sessions, RLAS cannot promise to see everyone who comes on an evening. If possible, please try to arrive before 8pm. However, you may need to wait outside the building until 8pm.
