@sue_james1 @HF_LawCentre @LawCentres Congratulations Sue! I hope you’ll still have time to be on the @legalaidhbk editorial team for the next edition!
I have loved working at @HF_LawCentre and being a part of the @LawCentres family and will be sad to leave but this is an opportunity to use the skills I have developed in practice more strategically. A strong voice for social justice is needed now more than ever. Exciting too!
We are thrilled to announce that award-winning social justice champion @sue_james1 is the new CEO of Legal Action Group from March 2021. Sue is the perfect choice to follow in the footsteps of legal aid legend @CarolStorerA2J. Full press release here: lag.org.uk/?id=209832

Dropped a son off at uni and despite the restrictions I couldn’t help feel jealous at the prospect of embarking 3 years of undergrad life in a wonderful city outside London. There’s no need to feel sorry for them missing freshers’ experience. The excitement is still there.

I've just had a 10 minute conversation with my opponent on the phone. Looking back over it, I now think that he thought I was his instructing solicitor.

#LALY20: delighted that Mike McIlvaney @clpsolicitors has won outstanding achievement award. @ChrisLAPG @LALYawards please could his speech be put online as soon as humanly possible?
The last award of the evening is our outstanding achievement award. And the winner is the tenacious Mike McIlvaney of Community Law Partnership, who battled all the way to the Supreme Court to win the landmark housing case of Samuels. Congratulations, Mike!
Amazing night @FionaBawdon @ChrisLAPG and the @LALYawards team. #LALY20 was a brilliant achievement in the middle of a global pandemic - celebrating legal aid in all its glory!
And a great speech from Patrick.
Hugely well deserved win by @swllc at the @LALYawards this evening. Congratulations to you all! You do amazingly difficult and important work in such a challenging climate. Law centre superstars!!
So thrilled for Simon @spikemullings - one of our most enthusiastic and prolific authors with so many important things to say - and always so fun to work with. Huge huge congrats!! 🎉🎉
