Community

Being in our community’s corner is important to us at Reid Cooper Gray.

Our team helps in many ways – from providing pro bono legal advice and services to disadvantaged New Zealanders, to supporting many important organisations and trusts as board members. We also get behind our local sports teams through sponsorship.

Access to justice

Our lawyers are registered volunteers with Te Ara Ture, an organisation that connects lawyers with disadvantaged New Zealanders to make the justice system fairer and more accessible. We’re proud to provide pro bono legal services to improve people’s lives and strengthen our society.

Governance

Our team supports many community organisations as board members, giving back to our community through service and support.

–  Otago Rugby Union
–  Arai Te Uru Kokiri Centre Charitable Trust
–  Otago Peninsula Trust
–  The Pukekura Trust
–  ID Dunedin Fashion Charitable Incorporated Society
–  Creative Arts Trust
–  Otago Multiple Sclerosis Investment Trust

Pro bono

We also support a number of local organisations by providing necessary pro bono legal advice and services. This enables these important organisations to prioritise their spending on delivering key services in our communities:

–  The Bowling Club
–  ID Dunedin Fashion Charitable Incorporated Society
–  DGA – Dunedin Gymnastics Association
–  Trinity Catholic College

Sponsorship

We love getting behind local sports and helping schools and organisations achieve their goals. In 2025 we’ve been proud to sponsor Trinity Catholic College Netball and Crossover Basketball, the leading programme for youth basketball development in Otago.
