The Sutton Trust

We collaborate with the Sutton Trust, a charity which champions social mobility through programmes, research and policy influence. Our members volunteer with the Trust to provide A Level students from less advantaged backgrounds with work experience via the ‘Pathways to Law’ Programme. In May 2022 and May 2023, we ran in house work experience programmes for 6 students providing advocacy, negotiation and mediation exercises, a visit to the Old Bailey and a CV workshop.

We attended the Bar Council Summit on Social Mobility in July 2023 where Clare Kelly facilitated a workshop on widening access to the profession.
