Women in law ramps up online activity

Women in the Law UK, the national organisation for women in the legal profession, has ramped up its online activity to replace face-to-face meetings during the pandemic
It is running three educational lunchtime webinars per week, a social Zoom meeting every Thursday evening, increasing the frequency of its ‘Talking Law’ podcasts from monthly to weekly (with special guests including Judge Rinder and the Secret Barrister), and boosting its social media activity.

Founder and chair Sally Penni said it was a ‘superb programme of online events’.
