Applications are now open for the 2024/5 mentoring scheme
In 2021, Cornerstone Barristers and four other planning,
property and public law sets (Field Court Chambers, Francis Taylor
Building, Kings Chambers, and Landmark Chambers), set up a
mentoring scheme for underrepresented groups at the Bar. Falcon
Chambers, 39 Essex Chambers, No 5 Chambers and Gatehouse Chambers
have since joined the scheme. It is supported by the Planning and
Environment Bar Association (PEBA).
The scheme is intended to encourage undergraduates and
postgraduates from groups that are not well represented at the Bar
to consider becoming barristers. These underrepresented groups
include women, people from minority ethnic backgrounds and people
from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds.
