On 17 November as part of Road Safety Week, our personal injury team will be taking part in The Big Tea Brake and completing the Memory Mile to raise funds for Brake, the Road Safety Charity.

The day will be especially meaningful as we walk in memory of those whose lives have been lost or forever changed as a result of road collisions. In particular, we will be walking in memory of Lee Sherratt, a family friend of our colleague Toni Lowery.

After a devastating road traffic collision at just 18 years old, Lee lived with life-changing injuries for 25 years. Despite the challenges he faced, he remained known for his sense of humour, his cheeky smile and his love of sport, especially Wigan Athletic. Sadly, Lee passed away in 2023, aged just 42.

It will be our privilege to honour Lee's memory, while supporting the vital work Brake does for families affected by road death and serious injury and campaigning for safer roads for everyone.

Every donation, no matter how big or small, can make a difference.

If you would like to support our fundraising efforts, please consider making a donation. Together, we can help provide support to those facing the devastating impact of road collisions and work towards safer roads for all: https://t.co/dI28lOlj6l

Should all job adverts include salary details? With plans to make pay disclosure compulsory and growing pressure on employers to act now, Philip Richardson shares his views on how greater transparency could create fairer workplaces and support better recruitment practices.

Comment if full

"Publishing salaries on job adverts is a simple step that can make recruitment fairer and more transparent. Greater openness around pay can help address pay disparities, reduce the scope for disputes and ensure candidates have the information they need to make informed decisions. Although there is currently no timetable for the change, businesses that start reviewing their recruitment practices now will be better placed to attract talent, build trust and demonstrate their commitment to fairness."
