INTRODUCTION

President’s Foreword

Winter 2023

This is the first edition of the magazine that I have the pleasure of introducing. I am delighted to have been elected President of Shropshire Law Society and very much look forward to reading and contributing to this publication. We have an exciting year ahead of us and I hope that you will be able to join me at these events where we can celebrate Shropshire’s legal success and community.

This magazine can only exist with your contributions to which I am very grateful so please do let us have any of your articles either as a one off, or as a regular feature emailed to info@shropshirelawsociety.com.

I would like to invite you all to a President’s drinks reception, where I will be able to introduce you to members of the committee and provide highlights of the forthcoming year ahead. It would be great to see as many of you as possible. So please look out for the invite.

This first publication of the magazine has some really engaging and interesting articles, Chloe Turner provides an interesting insight into the emerging new way to qualify as a Solicitor as an apprentice which I am sure you will all find intriguing.

As it is my intention to champion the successes of Shropshire Law firms I am delighted that there is an article about Beth Heath for winning Clinical Negligence Solicitor of the year, her work has been invaluable to championing the rights and legal rights and rebalancing those people affected by the Shropshire Maternity Scandal.

I hope that you find the article relating to the Shropshire Future Lawyers Event interesting it was great to see so many upcoming partners attending this event.

All that is left for me to say is a Happy New Year and I look forward to meeting you all in person.
