The Platform for Successful Arrears Maintenance Recovery
About Responsibility
Responsibility exists because the system failed too many children. Despite maintenance orders, despite legal rights, despite children going without, maintenance defaulters faced no real consequences. Until now.
Because Maintenance is a Responsibility!
Responsibility is a project of the Social Justice Foundation, a registered non-profit organisation committed to improving access to justice in maintenance matters.
Drawing on more than 39 years of experience in the maintenance system, the founders understand the legal, financial and practical challenges faced by parents and caregivers when seeking maintenance for children and other dependants.
Responsibility provides free, reliable information to help users understand their rights, obligations and available legal processes. Through accessible guidance, practical self-help tools and appropriate dispute-resolution support, we aim to empower people to navigate maintenance disputes with greater knowledge and confidence.
At the heart of Responsibility is a simple principle: maintenance is not merely a financial obligation—it is a responsibility owed to those who depend on it.
