The roundtable will be focused on the findings of the ground-breaking Legally Disabled research project about the negative and positive experiences of qualified disabled people working, or seeking to work, in the legal profession.
No matter how big or small your firm, in-house team or organisation, you can make a positive change to improve disability inclusion and we hope that the event will help to support you to start, or improve, the process of understanding barriers faced by disabled people and take steps to embed disability equality into your policies, procedures and organisational culture. We hope that we can help to remove the disadvantage that disabled people in the legal professions face, as well as understand what accessibility and inclusion mean in practice.
His Honour Judge Nicholas Dean QC, His Honour Judge John Potter and His Honour Martin Judge Walsh have, for some time been working on a plan for “Recovery” in Greater Manchester.
“Recovery” really refers to the elimination of the backlog of work caused by covid and some pre-covid factors, but in their view it is vital that they ensure they manage new incoming work effectively and efficiently so that as the backlog of work is eliminated, all cases in our Crown Courts are dealt with within acceptable timescales, and of course to the highest standards.
This will not be achieved without the change in culture the BCM scheme was intended to bring about, and so a large part of the recovery plan is devoted to a re-invigoration of BCM. The judges are now equipped with a significant increase in sitting days and have additional staff and courtrooms. That and the anticipated relaxations of social distancing should mean they can soon increase the numbers of trials they list.
