Environment and sustainability

We are members of the Bar Sustainability Network. We would like to minimise our environmental impact within the constraints of what is possible in a Grade 1 listed building.

We have been working to reduce our paper use, and actively encourage all members to work electronically. If papers are required, we print everything double sided, and ensure that it is all confidentially recycled afterwards. 

Clare Kelly attended the inaugural Bar Council Sustainability Conference in June 2023 in order to discuss sustainability initiatives with other sets, and with our landlord (Middle Temple) and, with the support of Middle Temple, has since set up a professional tenants group at Middle Temple to discuss sustainability within the Inn. 

The introduction of more sustainable working practices is one of our aims for the next 12-24 months.
