IBA Biennial
Conference,
Melbourne 1994.
The 25th Biennial conference of the
International Bar Association will be
held from 9 - 1 4 October next year in
Melbourne. The links between
lawyers in this country and in
Australia, particularly the state of
Victoria, are well known and for that
reason it is likely that many people
will wish to attend the Conference.
Already there have been many
enquiries and if the numbers are
sufficient, attractive rates of travel
and hotel accommodation should be
available.
Any person interested at this stage
should contact either of the
undersigned as soon as possible so
that further investigation into the
possibilities of group travel may be
undertaken.

The Sama r i t ans
. . . Someone
to L i sten
In the course of our work as solicitors
we have occasion to meet clients who
present problems or difficulties that
may not be of a legal nature. Together
with their legal problems, they may
present others, e.g. bereavement,
financial worries, loneliness, broken
relationships, inability to cope with
stress.
While we do address the legal issues
presented by a client, we may not
always have the time or ability simply
to listen to a client who wishes to talk
about other problems.
The Samaritans exist to befriend the
lonely, the depressed and the suicidal.
They are a non-denominational
organisation, available 24 hours a day
to offer time and a listening ear to
those in need. If it is felt appropriate
or necessary, a solicitor can, with
sensitivity, point a client in the
direction of the Samaritans. A list of
Samaritan branches and telephone
numbers is set out below.
Solicitors might also note that the
Samaritans are a voluntary
organisation supported, mainly, by
donations. Bequests and donations are
always welcome and solicitors might
bear this in mind if requested by a
client to suggest a suitable charity.
(Bequests should be made out to a
specific branch.)
