Ecstatic that @LeighDay_Law was ranked no. 21 in the @stonewalluk Top 100 employers 2022! As chair of the firm's LGBT+ Committee, I couldn't be more proud today. It really is a privilege to work alongside inspiring colleagues every day.
We have all mourned the loss of Jonny Cooper, barrister, #LGBTQ+ campaigner, activist, friend and inspiration to many of us.
We are today launching an appeal for donations to help support Jonny’s husband Kevin, after Jonny’s sudden and untimely death.

A special issue of the journal will be published in February dedicated to Jonathan. It is a beautiful tribute which has been carefully created by members of the editorial board.
@outystreet I’m working on a research project focusing on the experiences of LGBTQIA+ women/AFAB people working in the legal sector. There's currently no research focused on this group. I would be very grateful if you could share this advert with anyone you know who may be suited
Even though the European Court of Human Rights found the gay cake case inadmissible, it was lovely to see mention of the intervention by our great late colleague @JonathanCoopr with Paul Johnson of @UniversityLeeds
Important judgment by European Court of Human Rights: Violations of A3, A11 & A14. Georgia failed to protect peaceful demonstrators from homophobic and transphobic aggression and failed to hold an adequate investigation https://t.co/7GcQSih5DS
