Standing room only at the Cardiff University Law Fair! 🎓 Great to see so much interest in chambers life at 30 Park Place and to meet so many enthusiastic future barristers.
Applications for pupillage open 5th January 2026, and applications for mini-pupillages February 2026.
We’ve finished reviewing over 50 mini-pupillage applications for only 6 places. The calibre is exceptionally impressive- thoughtful, capable, and committed aspiring barristers. It makes for some very tough decisions and we are grateful to all who apply. #MiniPupillage #Barrister

A really lovely and uplifting obituary in @thetimes for @JamesTurner37 today. And of course his work goes on as I’ve just drafted a skeleton in support of the grounds of appeal he drafted in his last reported case of XY v XX [2024]

Fun welcoming the Attorney General and wonderful new Bar Council chair, and great to tackle all things Young Bar on behalf of the Welsh circuit 🐣 🏴⚖️
This week, our Chair Barbara Mills KC and our Chair of the Young Barristers' Committee Lachlan Stewart went on their first circuit visit of the year to the Wales and Chester Circuit.
We were delighted to meet our members - from pupils to silks - as well as judges to discuss a range of issues affecting the Bar and the justice system. We discussed the Leveson review, Pathfinder courts, career progression, the court estate and much more...
We also visited the Civil Justice Centres in Cardiff and Swansea as well as the Crown Court in the capital where we met with the Solicitor General, Attorney General and more members of the Bar and Judiciary.
A big thank you to the Wales and Chester Circuit Leader Caroline Rees KC and all the team for a brilliant, informative visit, and to Angel, 9 Park Place, Apex and 30 Park Place chambers for meeting with us.

Amazing to reflect on 2021 as the @thebarcouncil gateway opens for 2025. Life at the Bar has been so rewarding🌟
Supporting aspiring applicants is something I value & this January, I can dedicate a handful of hours to help. Public/human rights or criminal law? Reach out⚖️📬

There is no charm equal to tenderness of heart. There is nothing to be compared to it. Warmth and tenderness of heart, with an affectionate, open manner, will beat all the clearness of head in the world, for attraction.

Merci Gisèle Pélicot.
Pour ce mot de justice au nom duquel vous avez affronté l’épreuve tête haute.
Pour les femmes, qui ont pour toujours une éclaireuse pour parler et lutter.
Pour nous tous, car votre dignité et votre courage ont ému et inspiré la France et le monde.
Distracting our true security challenge: the triple planetary crisis
"The world must turn away from the death spiral of militarized approaches to security, and find its way back to mediation, dialogue, negotiation and confidence-building... We need to invest in human rights."
The cost of war is so high, and the human toll is incalculable.
States need to do all in their power to insist that senseless conflicts and suffering end - @UNHumanRights Chief @volker_turk at the end of the year press briefing.
