4/4 Solidarity isn’t a slogan. It’s something you do- day in, day out. Not for a day.
So don’t just post about it. Do it. It matters. A lot.

I wrote We Set the Bar because I believe this profession can be fairer, healthier and genuinely inclusive - without losing its independence or integrity.
Day by day we must keep talking. Keep listening. And act 2 because word are not enough.

Most use that power responsibly. Some don’t - and the consequences can shape careers for years. Without transparency and accountability, power protects itself.
A fair profession requires visible, answerable power.

Power at the Bar isn’t abstract. It sits with those who allocate work, recommend promotion, and decide who belongs.

Lost income, stalled careers, unpaid caring work, exhaustion treated as personal failure. The Bar still rewards constant availability - a model built around lives many women don’t live.
When staying comes at a higher price, equality is only theoretical.

In the count down to #IWD- reflect on Woman at the Bar and COST
We talk a lot about the cost of legal aid in numbers. We talk far less about the cost to the women who practise it.

Anger has a bad reputation at the Bar - especially in women.
We’re told to be calm. Measured. Resilient.
