Our annual conference today is at the fantastic County Hall venue operated by @etcvenues on the South Bank. Already hearing lots of positive buzz about the rooms, facilities and a hearty breakfast to start us off on the right foot #solicitors #advocacy

Sir Gary's talk, on the "challenges and opportunities" facing solicitor advocates today, has really captured the audience's attention - what a great way to start our 2022 conference #solicitors #advocates
Replying to @Tech_Litig8or
Starting with a wonderful keynote from our Hon. President, Sir Gary Hickinbottom, reminding us that law is not just a job, or even a vocation, but also an adventure #advocacy #sahca
