Hi everyone,
I hope that you might be kind enough to help me with my research. I want to find out about the issues which people with disabilities face in accessing barristers' services and practising as a barrister in England and Wales. I'd be really grateful if you could please share your experiences in this discussion thread (both positive and negative experiences would be great to hear about, as well as any suggestions you have for how to make the bar more welcoming and accessible for disabled people). Please feel free to anonymise details.
Thanks a lot in advance - I really appreciate your help,
Fiona
