Freshfields unveils £10k bursaries for UCL law students

Comment

UCL is an excellent choice. It has a law school which is at least the equal of Oxbridge but does not have the potentially off putting image. It is good to see a firm of the calibre of FBD start to take some action to underpin the inclusiveness message being spun by all the larger firms. Another really good example is Taylor Wessing currently taking a case to the ECJ pro bono challenging the criminalisation of homosexuality in Turkish-controlled Cyprus. It is very easy to put out marketing materials expounding equality. Firms which invest in meaningful initiatives such as these can be taken more seriously in what they say on the subject.
