With thanks to The SLS, we are delighted to invite paper abstracts for a one day conference Northumbria Law School, 17th September 2024, on Empirical Legal Research Methodology. Please see flyer for full details. Cerian Griffiths Malvika Unnithan Dr Lyndsey Bengtsson

Attended this brilliant webinar yesterday. It was just the fuel I needed for my upcoming sabbatical. Thank you to all the speakers for sharing their research and experiences - Ali Struthers Laura Lundy Dawn Watkins to mention a few.

Also mustered the willpower to present my paper in the family stream SLS Annual Conference this morning before rushing for my train. Thanks Peter Dunne & Sharon Thompson for being such lovely and encouraging chairs. #SLSBrookes23

Got lost in the conference frenzy after 2 days of conferencing but had an amazing time on day 3 and 4 #SLSBrookes23 at the family and open stream. Heard about plural relationships, parenthood, family mediation, animal law (Dr. Rachel Dunn Josh Jowitt) and the SSMP in Nigeria.

Had a brilliant day at #SLSBrookes23 attending the human rights stream and in the criminal justice stream. Very thought-provoking papers on European Public Orders, Children’s Rights (Dr Naomi Lott) and Sexual Offences. The icing on the cake was the inspiring panel discussion!

Same! So much wisdom and passion! Loved it.

Spent Day 1 of #SLSBrookes23 at the Legal Education stream chaired by Dr Jessica Guth. Heard a range of fascinating talks including two that I’ve heard before from the amazing Dr Elisabeth Griffiths 🌻, Ali Struthers, and Lindsay Jack. Looking forward to more tomorrow!

Congratulations!! 🥳 Student Law Office Northumbria Law School

Got a chance to immerse myself into thinking about the School Tasking Project taking place at Northumbria next academic year through an amazing Away Day organised by Ali Struthers. Such a fun and informative way to think School Tasking . Ready to get planning!

Had a lovely morning hearing from colleagues about their research at the Law & Society stream at the Northumbria B&L research conference today! So much amazing work Northumbria Law School. It’s got me inspired for the next couple of conferences I’ll be attending and presenting at.

Wrote up a little something that was central to my doctoral research findings regarding the role of education in informing children about the age of criminal responsibility (ACR). I had the opportunity to present and discuss this further at the #SLSA2023 .

My first post-PhD conference paper at SLSA . It was such a pleasure to present in the children’s rights stream with Rachel Heah and Dr Gift Sotonye-Frank. Thoroughly enjoyed seeing the overlaps between our work and hearing about the great work they have done so far. #SLSA2023

Minister Long has launched a public consultation to seek views on the minimum age of criminal responsibility (MACR) in NI

In the consultation you can choose between maintaining the current MACR, age 10, or increasing it

After a lovely week of introductions and meeting new students in my teaching sessions, now onto the content that lies ahead. Although, I did not realise how academic skills-oriented my teaching this semester is (3 of 4 modules). It seems like research has seeped into everything!

The academic year is starting up again in the most ‘normal’ conditions since Covid-19. Also, first lecture as lecturer.
