InterLaw Diversity Forum for LGBT Networks

Different Shades of the Same Rainbow:  A BAME and LGBT Event from the InterLaw Diversity Forum, the Bar and the Law Society on Wednesday, 23rd November

Wednesday, 23rd November, 6.00 pm, Law Society, 113 Chancery Lane, London WC2A 1PL

The InterLaw Diversiry Forum, the Law Society and the Bar want to explore experience of black, asian and minority ethnic (“BAME”) members of the legal sector and see how this experience is impacted when those members are also part of the LGBT community.

Hear from Dr Rob Berkeley of Runnymede Trust and Ms Laura Swiszczowski of Race for Opportunity as they speak about some of the barriers BAME & LGBT professionals face particularly in the legal workplace and how to overcome them in order to succeed and still stay connected to our various communities. Hear also from senior lawyers who speak from the heart on the challenges of being LGBT and BAME in modern day Britain.

This event will be followed by networking drinks in a safe and engaging environment.

6 pm registration for a 6:30 pm start.
