I am experienced in all areas of education.

Primary and secondary education- I am one of the UK's leading voices on Citizenship Education and was an adviser to the Solicitor General on Public Legal Education during the last government. I was the co-chair of the 2023 IPSEA Conference and regularly appear on behalf of children with disabilities/local authorities in the SEND Tribunal.

Higher education- I was the Deputy Chair of the Teaching Excellence Framework Pilot Subject Pilot panel for Business and Law and a reviewer of universities for the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education for 9 years. I have been a university lecturer for 5 years, and was a sabbatical officer of the University of Nottingham Students' Union.

Other education work- I act as a clerk to Independent Review Panel Hearings.

I was a trained FRU volunteer before coming to the bar. I have acted as sole counsel in the Employment Appeal Tribunal and am instructed to act in the Employment Tribunal in complex disability-related claims.

I have a growing practice helping those who have suffered from data breaches. I also use the Data Protection Act in creative ways to achieve the outcomes my clients need.

I have been instructed to act in cases concerning the Homelessness Act 1996. I have a long interest in this area following my work with Nottingham Citizens.

I am very active in the field of human rights and regularly advise others on whether their human rights are engaged in their interactions with public authorities. By the same token I act on behalf of responsible public bodies whose actions are being challenged.

I am frequently instructed to act in the First-Tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber). I have successfully represented victims of human trafficking, those who have been persecuted for their religious/political beliefs and abused women. I have a growing paperwork practice assisting Appellants with their applications and writing skeleton arguments ahead of contested proceedings.

I have a busy landlord and tenant practice that keeps me in the County Court, or working on papers relating to tenancies, on a weekly basis. I have represented vulnerable tenants, individual landlords, business landlords, local authorities, successor tenants and a whole host of others in a wide-ranging practice. I care passionately about making housing work and have interests outside of my current work as a housing barrister. Prior to joining the bar I was the Accommodation and Community Officer of the University of Nottingham Students' Union from 2014-2015. In that role I was the Vice Chair of the Unipol Code Tribunal, arbitrating disputes between tenants and landlords. I also campaigned as part of the Nottingham Citizens group to raise the standard of private sector accommodation in the city and to hold rogue landlords to account.

I work closely with local authorities to ensure that their decisions are lawful, and am regularly asked to advise public bodies on how they can do just that. I also take action on behalf of individuals that feel the state has not acted lawfully in its interactions with them.
