Happy International Women’s Day!
#BreakTheBias
Women do not always get the recognition they deserve.
We still have some work to do to break down the barriers but we can all do our part!
We rise by lifting others. #IWD2022 #Equality #DiversityandInclusion @BMEatTheBar @BBN_Tweets

This has been a labour of love for the past 12 months. I have been collaborating with 8 other barristers (and many other supporters) to produce something which (we hope) will be useful & interesting and, most importantly, will help bring about change in the bar’s approach to E&D
📰⚖️ Barristers launch equality, diversity and inclusion directory
Nine barristers from @thebarcouncil Leadership Programme have launched the Bar’s first ever Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Directory. Read more here: ow.ly/hCN150H1JPQ
This looks like an excellent career progression event. Featuring @BrieQC talking about judicial appointments, two @GovernmentLegal deputy directors talking about AG Panel appointments and @brynmoradams in the chair.
Join us for our latest panel event discussing all things appointments. The panel are particularly well-placed to provide tips for barristers from non-traditional and underepresented backgrounds applying for appointments!
