A part of her letter said ‘I am thrilled to learn about the success of your diversity program in the legal profession, and am cheering you and your colleagues on’
I don’t think I will ever get over this. Thank you Hillary Clinton!

National Coming Out Day isn’t about forcing LGBTQ+ people to come out. It’s a day to celebrate the power of being true to yourself 🏳️🌈
It’s about acknowledging the difficulties, and remembering that it’s still not something all LGBTQ+ people can safely do. #NationalComingOutDay

Someone close told me…‘focus less on creating seats at the same table, instead build new tables for everyone to sit at and feel included’.
With that in mind, I’m excited to launch our first Pride event for LGBTQ+ aspiring lawyers to spend a day with Allen & Overy in London🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Representation matters. Diversity matters. The legal profession is lucky to have you @haleemahsadiaa, congratulations 👏
This picture speaks volumes to me as a British Pakistani, blind Muslim woman. When taking the professional pictures at my Call ceremony I ensured that my white cane was in the photo because it is significant to my journey as a legally blind barrister.
