and

The annual conference: ‘Private Law – a proportionate and safe approach’

The Lecture was hosted as part of the Family Justice Council’s annual interdisciplinary conference, which was held in Bristol on Wednesday 6 April 2022.

For those who could not attend in person, we offered delegates the opportunity to view the Bridget Lindley Memorial lecture online.

The Bridget Lindley Memorial Lecture, now in its fifth year, was set up to commemorate the life and work of Bridget Lindley OBE who died in 2016. Bridget served with distinction as a member of the Family Justice Council and as the Family Rights Group’s Principal Legal Adviser and Deputy Chief Executive.

This year’s lecture was given by Helen Adam, Mediator and chair of the Family Solutions Working Group. The title of the lecture was, ‘Is it Time for Climate Change in the Family Justice System?’

The Family Justice Council annual conference was held after the Lecture and was hosted as an in person event. The topic this year was ‘Private Law – a proportionate and safe approach’.

Both events were hosted by Sir Andrew McFarlane, President of the Family Division and Chair of the Family Justice Council.
