Welcome
Welcome to the Summer issue of CILEx Journal
I hope that you and yours are safe and well. At the time of writing, the government had just unveiled its plans to reopen our society and economy as we learn to live in the Coronaverse. I anticipate that the acts of kindness and sense of collective social responsibility shown during the lockdown will continue in the Brave New World into which we are all tentatively emerging
. In this especially CILEx-centric issue, contributors include the Chair of CILEx Board and our new President and Vice-President.
Their respective articles reveal just how CILEx has reshaped its internal governance structure in the past year and by what means, in the coming months, we will promote equality, diversity and inclusion and challenge discrimination in the legal industry and wider society; relandscape the profession to the advantage of current and would-be CILEx members; and transform the CILEx membership experience for individuals at every level.
As our new Vice-President Caroline Jepson says: ‘There is much to look forward to.’
Take good care please.
Sincerely,
Val
