Current Activities 

The Law Society Diversity and Inclusion Charter

We are one of the founding signatories of The Law Society Diversity Charter, and jointly sponsored its launch in July 2009.  The Charter aims to encourage FTSE 250 companies and equivalent public sector bodies to employ law firms that meet its diversity criteria.  Further information about the Charter is available on The Law Society website

White Collar Club

We are one of the main corporate sponsors of the White Collar Club, which is the gay, lesbian and bisexual professional networking group in Leeds and Yorkshire. We recently provided financial support and donated prizes to a raffle night. Click here for more information.

We have consistently provided support for Stonewall Cymru. The launch of the Stonewall Cymru's annual newsletter "Seren" took place in our Cardiff office, with our Senior Partner for our Cardiff Office offering a well-received welcoming speech. Please click here for further details. 

Legal Sector Recruitment Alliance

Eversheds took the lead on the Legal Sector Recruitment Alliance, working with three major legal recruiters and 10 other law firms. The diversity monitoring form we created has been endorsed by The Law Society and the NGOs for the six diversity strands.  It has been posted on The Law Society website and all law firms are being encouraged to use it with their recruitment agencies.
