Thanks to the mighty @seonaid90 for collating: may be of interest to Scottish Ethnic Minorities Lawyers Association, The Glass Network, The FJSS Group, Women in Law Scot, Glasgow Bar Association, New lawyers, Legable among others!
We were delighted to work with Law Society Scotland to ensure that the ethnicity data was comprehensive and we will continue to work with the LSS towards building a diverse and inclusive profession. The publication of diversity data for the first time is an important step towards that aim.
We are collaborating with Brodies LLP on work experience placements at the firm for two students from ethnic minority backgrounds. The deadline for applications is 16 July 2021. This is a great opportunity for students to get a snapshot of life at one of Scotland's leading firms.
