President's Welcome to the Bristol Legal Awards 2026

Dear Friends & Colleagues,

I am proud to welcome you to this year’s Bristol Legal Awards.

These Awards give us the opportunity to recognise the people who show up with purpose, those who support their colleagues and make a real difference. Please take a moment to nominate your colleagues, teams, your firms and the rising stars among us whose work deserves to be seen. Recognition matters, and your nominations ensure legal excellence across our community is celebrated.

The Awards are also a chance for us all to come together,  to catch up, reconnect and enjoy an evening that reminds us why this profession is so special. It’s one night where the whole legal community in our city is in the same room, celebrating each other and the work happening across our city.

This year, I am proud to support SARI (Stand Against Racism & Inequality) as my Charity of the Year. Their work supporting victims of hate crime is more vital now than ever before in the ever shifting political landscape. Your support & attendance will help raise much needed funds to strengthen their impact across our region.

Thank you all for your continued support of Bristol Law Society.

I look forward to seeing you all on 5 November 2026, its going to be epic!

Best wishes
