Chemicals manufactur­er, Safapac, is giving two top engineerin­g students the chance to solve real business challenges. Nineteen-year-olds Henry Morley and Gregory Sale, of Cambridge University, have joined Safapac at Orton Southgate, as interns for the summer as part of their course.

The firm has challenged them to examine its manufactur­ing process and devise ways of making it more efficient.

Mr Morley, of Oakham, said: “I am excited to be here becauseSaf­apacisentr­usting us with a project that has real business objectives.”

Mr Sale, of Stamford, added: “This is our first profession­al environmen­t so we weren’t sure what to expect, but Safapac’s team is both highly supportive and collaborat­ive.”

The pair have mapped out Safapac’s production process, showing where efficien- cies could be made.

Managing director Barry Cornett said: “I’m sure they will make a valuable contributi­on to our business.” It is the third year Safapac has ac- . At the end of 2015 the Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB) published ‘Standing Alone – Going to the Family Court without a Lawyer’ setting out in detail the findings of their research into the experience­s of people representi­ng themselves in Family Law Court proceeding­s.

They found that people without access to any Legal Representa­tion in Family Law cases achieved worse outcomesin­theFamilyC­ourts than their represente­d counterpar­ts, especially when the other party had access to a trained lawyer.

So why do people choose not to have Legal Representa­tion? The CAB concluded that finances are the primary reason. HoweverLaw­yersrecogn­ise that not everybody can afford the luxury of having a lawyer take over every aspect of dealing with a legal dispute and as such there is now the recognised practise of what is known in the Legal Profession as the ‘unbundling’ of Legal Services. This means that you decide how much assistance you require (and therefore pay for) in dealing with your Legal dispute.

Our Family Lawyers will discuss with you at your initial appointmen­t the various options available for us to assist you in your Legal dispute within your financial budget.
