About this Event
Join the Haldane Society on 26 May for an evening of discussion about Why Juries Matter, in response to the Government's proposal to remove the right to trial by jury in certain cases.
We will address the political aspects of the proposals, debunk the myths on which they are based and discuss why the right to a trial by jury is so important in 2026.
Speakers
Matt Foot, Solicitor and co-Director of Appeal
Trudi Warner, activist and campaigner with Defend our Juries.
Further speakers to be announced.
Chaired by Grace Cowell, criminal defence barrister at One Pump Court Chambers.
Please join us in person to hear from our experts followed by a Q&A and drinks at the Pelican House bar. Also available online.
