Diversity

12KBW is committed to promoting equality and diversity and creating and sustaining a positive and supportive environment for our staff, barristers, clients and suppliers.

We promote a culture where the individual is fairly treated, respected and diversity is appreciated. Equality of opportunity is based on merit, irrespective of background, beliefs and socio-economic context.

It is our policy to ensure, both individually and collectively, that we do not practice or permit any form of discrimination; whether direct, indirect, or by way of victimisation, against any person, or any harassment of any person.

12KBW is a proud supporter of, and participant in, the Bar Council’s Bar Placement Scheme in conjunction with the Social Mobility Foundation and also the Inner Temple’s Pegasus Access Scheme, providing work experience for university and sixth form students with the aim of encouraging diversity and social mobility at the Bar.

Members of Chambers regularly undertake pro bono work, including via the Free Representation Unit (FRU) and Employment Lawyers Appeals Advice Scheme (ELAAS).
