#IAmBDABar

Bringing [Dis]Ability to the Bar (BDABar) is a group run by and for disabled aspiring barristers. We are working to dismantle barriers affecting disabled aspiring barristers & improve accessibility at the Bar through research, education, mentorships & more!

This organisation is so important in continuing to destigmatise disability, supporting those wanting to join the Bar, and as a community for barristers and aspiring barristers with disabilities.

I see BDABar as a young and incredibly passionate organisation driven by individuals who are keen to promote accessibility and change at the Bar.

[The event] has certainly removed a small amount of the burden from my day to day thoughts that my disabilities will prevent access to the Bar, I now just feel it's going to be slightly more difficult.

Whilst our mentors recognise the great task which we need to accomplish in accessing the profession, they have provided an objective ear and good advice.
