The Brokerage - Raising Aspirations; Creating Diversity

CSR Consultancy - Case Study

T: 020 7628 9904

Lovells has worked with the Brokerage over a number of years through hosting workshops for its Working in the City programme, an initiative aimed at targeting groups from inner-London schools. Consequently when, in response to the Milburn Report, we were looking to develop our own links with schools whose students are largely from backgrounds that are under represented in the legal profession, it seemed a logical organisation to partner with.

We very quickly formed an effective working relationship and the Brokerage’s knowledge of inner-London education, the City and the practicalities of running programmes for students in the 14 to 19 age range has been invaluable in setting up “Lovells Ladder to Law”. In addition their close relationship with many schools has allowed us to sign up a number very quickly. In the coming weeks we will be discussing how the Brokerage might support us in the delivery of the programme.
