Building a better Life in the Law
LawCare's inaugural conference, 28th September 2022, online.
Join us for our inaugural Building a better Life in the Law conference
We have used our insights from 25 years of supporting the mental wellbeing of the legal community and the findings of our ground breaking Life in the Law research, to develop a fantastic programme.
We’re gathering leaders across the profession who are pioneering new ways of working, to share their experiences of improving the culture in law, through an interactive programme of plenaries, panel discussions, workshops and breakout sessions.
The programme has three main tracks:
- Starting out – addressing the particular needs of junior lawyers
- Innovation – in supervision and management
- Leading – creating cultures where people feel valued and belong
