The 2025 Bar Pro Bono Awards took place yesterday evening to celebrate the remarkable pro bono contributions made by the Bar across England and Wales.
Sharif A. Shivji KC, Chair of Advocate, reflected on why Advocate hold the awards annually in his opening address:
“The purpose of this evening is to recognise and celebrate the Bar’s extraordinary contribution to pro bono work. Without the Bar’s commitment, the practical delivery of justice in this country would be severely diminished… Over the past year, barristers and clerks across the country have stepped up to offer their skills and support wherever the interests of justice have demanded it.”
Congratulations to this year’s winners, see the full list of winners here.
