In addition we welcome Brigadier J A J Thomson OBE QVRM TD MSc who will be giving us the benefit of
his vast experience both in the armed forces and in civilian life in getting the best out of people for both
themselves and the organisation.
And Elizabeth Rimmer, CEO of Lawcare will be with us asking ‘Why Mental Health Matters for Lawyers?’
In the afternoon we will move to more training from our partner firms but the afternoon will start with a
plenary session from Jonathan Auburn of 11KBW dealing with Judicial Review matters.
Over 50 of your colleagues have already reserved their place for the day – will you be joining them?
You can reserve your place right now by going to the website at www.nwlegalconsortium.com
LAUNCH OF CONSORTIUM AUTUMN SURVEY IN ASSOCIATION WITH
THOMSON REUTERS
We will shortly be releasing a survey with a little help from Thomson Reuters to gauge the levels of
externalised legal work across our member organisations and how you respond to your clients requirements
for such support.
We are also trying to tease out the likely needs for external support in the future which will inform the
Consortium’s future procurement decisions.
If you can assist us by responding to this anonymous survey we would really appreciate this. It should only
take you around 5 minutes and its all to be done on line.
We hope to let you have the results in a later e-Bulletin or at the Annual Training Event.
