Inclusion, diversity and wellbeing

We work hard to create a fair, inclusive and supportive environment, where all of our barristers and employees feel able to be themselves.

We recognise that there is a serious lack of diversity in our profession and that we, as a chambers, have a long way to go to improve our gender balance, and ethnic and social diversity. We are committed to change and believe it is essential to the continuing success of our business. Only by building a truly diverse chambers can we offer the broad range of perspectives that will allow us to best support our clients.

We think that to provide the best possible advice and service to our clients, our barristers and employees need to be passionate about what they do, happy in their roles, and supported in developing their expertise and wellbeing.

We are committed to:

• Building an outstanding team, recruited from a diverse pool of talent
• Creating an inclusive workplace, where people feel able to be themselves and speak openly
• Providing training and opportunities that help our people fulfil their potential and provide the best possible service to clients
• Supporting the wellbeing and resilience of our people
• Reporting on our progress.

We have policies supporting these objectives. In particular, we provide equality of opportunity in chambers and throughout our recruitment processes, and will not tolerate discrimination on grounds of gender, gender identity, marital status, sexual orientation, race, colour, nationality, religion, age, disability, or political beliefs – or any other irrelevant grounds.
