Impact/Potential Impact of AI on minority access to and progression within the profession - Panel Discussion

To commemorate Black History Month, join the Leeds Law Society in conjunction with Legal Teach in Leeds for a panel discussion addressing the impact/potential impact of AI on minority access to and progression within the profession. Leeds Law Society is thrilled to announce the launch of Empower, a networking group for members of the legal sector from minority backgrounds. The purpose of the group is to create a safe space where members can learn from each other, share lived experience, grow together and make new connections in the area. We will also put events on that are open to the entire membership throughout the year. Including guest speakers

Leeds Law Society is proud to support Children’s Heart Surgery Fund, as our Presidents Charity 2024/2025.

Nigel said “I am pleased to share that this year Leeds Law Society will be raising funds and trying to boost awareness of the Children's Heart Surgery Fund (CHSF), a local charity doing really important work supporting kids who are undergoing treatment for serious heart issues. I was recently able to attend the ward at Leeds Children’s Hospital and meet staff and patients, to see first-hand the great work being done.” Based in Leeds, Children’s Heart Surgery Fund mission is to support the Leeds Congenital Heart Unit as a world-class centre of excellence – by providing the funding and resources needed to care for a patient’s heart, mind, family and future. Amanda Warrent, Corporate Partnership Manager at the CHSF said:” We are delighted to welcome Leeds Law Society on board as a corporate partner to the charity. Leeds Law Society help to shape the legal environment nationally and locally. They help to grow one of the most important sectors for our local economy, promote justice and help to attract and retain the talent needed to ensure Leeds continues to be recognised as the biggest legal centre outside of London. Their support will have a great impact on our region’s young heart patients and their families. Our aim is always to make children’s experiences of the heart surgery unit a more positive one, helping the whole family to cope and build resilience for the long and emotional journey they face through surgery and treatments. We’re excited to work on some fundraising endeavours over the next 12 months whilst also raising awareness of our work.
