After years of hard work, long hours, imposter syndrome, and so much more, I have qualified as a solicitor!
Looking forward to progressing in the next stage of my legal career, starting with my new role as a fully qualified lawyer next week.

@newhopeholl I get this, but you can change the progress settings at the bottom of the page, eg. Percentage through book or mins left in chapter which is satisfying! I still read physical books but it’s great for travelling and night reading, and you can have 1000s books at your fingertips x
I do not blame anyone leaving this site, given what it has become.
But as long as there are charlatans lying about the law and undermining our justice system, I’ll be here, banging my tiny lawsplaining drum, churning out Legal Live Tweets and laying some truth on yo sorry asses.
I’ve spent months investigating police mis-use of body worn video
Officers have turned off cameras while using force, deleted + not disclosed footage and shared videos on WhatsApp
They’ve filmed and shared a nude image and covertly recorded conversations

Watching James Acaster at Brighton Dome and some geezer runs down the middle of the stalls, lobs about five handfuls of Maltesers at The Mash King himself, says he ruined his comedy career and then saunters away into the night??
To help raise funds for advice agencies in the Brighton area, I will be walking the @londonlegal Brighton Legal Walk again this year.

Great #volunteer opportunity for someone to run our London family support group⬇️
I met our group of volunteers last night - they're spread across England and Wales and the impact the groups have on the families that attend is brilliant to see.
Do you want to be part of that?

Our family work wouldn't be possible without volunteers like @BethaneHarland 🙌 give her blog a read if you'd like to hear more about what it's like being a Family Support Group Volunteer!
For #NationalVolunteerWeek2023 I wrote a short piece about why I volunteer for the incredible organisation @PrisonersAbroad.
Thank you Prisoners Abroad for allowing me to facilitate safe spaces for family members, and for the amazing work you do!👏🏻

My Blue Monday sadness was significantly alleviated when I received confirmation that I passed the Financial and Business Skills PSC exam with a mark of 84%.
Only several more hurdles to jump before I finally qualify! 🎉
