Orla O'Sullivan attended the Women In Criminal Law's Clerk Mentoring Event on Wednesday, 22nd January.

The event offered an excellent platform for clerks to network, exchange insights, and develop professionally, with meaningful discussions centred on the shared challenges of our roles.

It was a fantastic event, filled with learning and connection. With thanks to WICL!
