This data is based upon submitted diversity questionnaires from staff and represents the reported diversity data in relation to our firm. We comply with our SRA requirements and the guidance by the Information Commissioners Office. As a result we are not required or permitted to publish any data which might identify one of our employees. We are also not required to publish data in relation to sexual orientation or religious beliefs.

Of the 39 Firm Diversity Data questionnaires distributed, 20 were returned, resulting in a response rate of 51.3%. Accordingly, the data in our report is based on the information received from these responses.

It is our view that the terms used in this report are self-explanatory but if more information is required please email our Practice Manager.

This report will be updated every two years. The next review is due in June 2027.
