Hi!

I'm Emily, Vice Chair of Operations at the ADL. My role is to keep things ticking along and to represent the ADL on the Bar Standards Board's Disability Task Force.

If you have a question about the Bar, what it's like to be a disabled Bar student, or have something you would like me to talk about on the BSB's Task Force, the let me know!

Are you currently studying law/have you previously studied law? What issues would you like to see ADL address/be aware of for disabled aspiring lawyers currently studying?

I'm Jody, I'm a third year LL.B student and I'm working towards becoming a barrister. I'm delighted to have been given the opportunity to organise the events for ADL and I'm delighted to meet you all 😊

Hi everyone, welcome to the forum!

I'm Lucie, the Vice-Chair of our student division. I'm excited to be able to have more of an interactive platform for us to get to know our members, and allow you to get to know each other!

How is everyone doing with the pupillage gateway deadline approaching? Is there anything you would want to see from us that may support you?
