The Western Circuit Women’s Forum was set up in 2015 with three simple aims: To improve the lot of women barristers on the Western Circuit. To encourage and help more Western Circuit women to stay at the Bar. To encourage and help more Western Circuit women to become KCs or judges. Why were we set up? Because much like the rest of the country we have a stark imbalance of the sexes in the senior ranks and it is a serious problem. The Bar Council Momentum Measures Report of 2015 concluded that on current patterns equality could never be achieved “The attrition is such that it would require a very long period of substantial imbalance in favour of women at Call to achieve a balance of women in practice.” The WCWF does not require membership, but welcomes participation and ideas from all Circuiteers and has a steering group which includes judges and a silk, and all of different calls and from all corners of the Circuit. The WCWF runs social, networking and training events, has commissioned research projects and coordinates lobbying on issues that affect women barristers. We liaise with other organisations such as the Bar Council and CBA about policy and working practices, and with the KC Secretariat and Judicial Appointments Commission to ensure we can provide help with career progression. Importantly we run the Circuit-based mentoring scheme for women barristers. The WCWF is funded by the Western Circuit and the Inns of Court.
