On the evening of 6 November, we will be running a networking and information event for chambers’ equality and diversity officers, to be held at Holborn Bars. The event will explore the new equality rules and share best practice.
The event will be addressed by The Hon. Dame Linda Dobbs who was the first BME person to be appointed to the senior judiciary of England and Wales. The keynote speech will be followed by workshops on work allocation monitoring, diversity data collection / publication, parental leave in chambers, harassment and reasonable adjustments.
Look out for more details on the BSB website, but, in the meantime, if you have any questions, or to register, please contact the BSB equality team on 020 7611 1322 or email Equality@ BarStandardsBoard.org.uk.
Please note: there is a maximum of 20 places for each workshop. Places will be allocated on a first come first served basis. Please indicate second and third workshop preferences when responding.
