For this year's Tom Sargant Memorial Lecture, we are honoured to welcome two brilliant speakers:

Drawing on their leadership roles in two of the UK’s largest and most diverse regions, Kate and Kaya will offer distinct perspectives on the challenges and opportunities facing the criminal justice system today. Their insights will highlight both shared concerns and region-specific approaches, making for a thorough and thought-provoking discussion. From Manchester to London, they will share insights into the pressing issues facing local government, policing, and community safety.

The event will be followed by a drinks and networking reception, kindly hosted by Baker McKenzie.
