Pathways to Law and The Sutton Trust - a podcast by Frances Ridout, Kerry Jarred, Simon Reichwald, Nigel Spencer

There are so many opportunities to find out about the legal profession and what it involves, but you need to know where to look for them and find which ones interest you.  Looking early and matching opportunties to your values can really help maximise your development.  Laura Bruce gives a fantastic overview of the work of the Sutton Trust who provide many opportunities to future lawyers and Blessing gives a great insight as to what it is like to undertake them.

This episode encourage listeners to undertake some practical actions after listening to the episode.

- Confidence is important, and difficult to gain. Reflect on the different areas that you feel you lack confidence in and think about what opportunties might help you increase your competence in that area.
- Opportunities are there and they are open to you.  Look at the search terms and organisations mentioned by Laura Bruce to see if any of them interest you.
