@SusieRLMurray @lawclinicsarah @fennerschambers @AngliaLawSchool It was great to work with you, Susie. Wishing you all the best in your studies!

[Fenners Chambers @fennerschambers]

For the second year running, Fenners have been named the Family Law Team of the Year at the Cambridge Law Society Excellence Awards🍾 It has been a particularly challenging year for everyone involved in working with families - we share this with you all.

[Jodie Drummond @jodiedrum]

After many months of uncertainty for all, it is nice to be able to share some good news! Enormous thanks and all positive words go to our fantastic Clerking team, without whom our work would not be possible.

[Jodie Drummond @jodiedrum]

Something to celebrate! As we can't get together, I guess I'll just have to enjoy a bottle of something on my own. Ah well, more for me.

[Fenners Chambers @fennerschambers]

We are thrilled to announce that Cambridge Law Society awarded us Family Law Team of the Year at their annual Excellence Awards! Laura Cooke gratefully accepted on behalf of us all. We look forward to celebrating together soon 🥂

@BenPhillipsBar Any excuse for new stationary

Today is my first day back in a court building since lock down began. Only twelve weeks have passed, but somehow it feels like my first day at school

[Jodie Drummond @jodiedrum]

At last, we find ourselves one pivotal step closer to #nofaultdivorce and a law fit for the 21st Century. My sincerest thanks go to @ResFamilyLaw and so many others who have worked tirelessly on this.

@headofroy Sure, blame the 4-year-old. The perks of working remotely.

[Jodie Drummond @jodiedrum]

The things that keep me (almost) sane during lockdown

[Andrew Cotter @MrAndrewCotter]

Some sports are slower. More about the strategy.

[Fenners Chambers @fennerschambers]

Today, we bid farewell to HHJ Yelton as he moves into a much deserved retirement. He was a founder member of Fenners and a highly respected member of the Bar and the Judiciary. His contribution will long be remembered. We wish him well 🍾

[Jodie Drummond @jodiedrum]

@SueFMFamily @LauraFMFamily Fantastic news! Nice work, Laura.

[Jodie Drummond @jodiedrum]

Pleased to know that these uncertain times won't stop @AngliaLawSchool's Law Clinic from offering free family law advice. Good luck to @lawclinicsarah and the team as we all transition to remote working!

[Jodie Drummond @jodiedrum]

An important caveat for separated parents, enabling many children to continue seeing both parents.

[Fenners Chambers @fennerschambers]

Government guidance confirms that, unless your household is isolating, children from separated parent households can still move between parents’ homes. https://t.co/pA4geCmMqa

[Ben Phillips @BenPhillipsBar]

It's not quite 'business as normal', but counsel at @fennerschambers are up and running with hearings and conferences taking place by telephone and video.

COVID-19 media fever has resulted in this technophobe joining the ranks of Twitter. I apologise in advance.
