CCLA and Marylebone Executive Search are delighted to hold their eighth annual lecture at Drapers' Hall.
This year's lecture will be delivered by HH Wendy Joseph KC, judge at the Old Bailey until March 2022.
HH Wendy read English and Law at Cambridge, was called to the Bar by Gray’s Inn in 1975, became a QC in 1998 and sat as a full‑time judge from 2007 to 2022. When she moved to the Old Bailey in 2012 she was the only woman among 16 judges, and only the third woman ever to hold a permanent position there. She was also a Diversity and Community Relations Judge, working to promote understanding between the judiciary and many different sectors of our community, particularly those from less privileged and minority groups.
Unlawful Killings, her first book, was published in June 2002 and became a Sunday Times Bestseller and won a Golden Dagger for non-fiction. Her second book, Rough Justice, was published in July 2024.
As ever drinks will be served from 6pm. HH Wendy will give the lecture from 6.30pm and the reception will follow.
