Podcast

Diversity pens

In this podcast Kathleen Heycock and Lettie Ransley discuss the employment and charity law aspects universities should consider when exploring equality and diversity initiatives for their students and staff, and how these can be implemented within the parameters of the law. We touch on what universities need to think about around student admissions and targeted scholarships, as well as in an employment setting.

If you require further information about anything covered in this podcast, please contact Kathleen Heycock, Laetitia Ransley, or your usual contact at the firm on +44 (0)20 3375 7000.
