Submissions for the 2027 Student Law Society Awards are now OPEN!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Run by LawCareers.Net<\/a>, the aim of the awards is simple: to highlight and celebrate the great work that societies at campuses up and down the country do, and the fantastic events and opportunities they create for their members.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A student law society can be all things to all people; it is a social hub, a place where members can improve and share their knowledge and understanding of the law and legal industry, a place to develop skills, to contribute to society, to argue and debate, and to have fun. And, of course, developing employability is a vital part of the brief of student law societies. They are hubs for empowering members to appreciate what sorts of career they can have, work out what they need to do to realise their ambitions and take practical steps to do so. LawCareers.Net is particularly keen to support this aspect of societies\u2019 activities.<\/p>\n

Submissions for the 2027 awards are now closed and we’re looking forward to hearing all about your societies!<\/p>\n
