Are you a second year student interested in a career at the Bar?

Lincoln's Inn announces new prizes designed to widen access to the Bar.

Up to five prizes, each of £1000 and free student membership of Lincoln's Inn, will be awarded at the end of the summer to students wanting to network with barristers in their last year of University.

To be eligible you must

• Be studying law at a non-Russell Group university such as the University of Chester
• Be about to start the final year of your studies for a qualifying law degree
• Not be a member of another Inn of Court and be able to join Lincoln's Inn
• Be able to demonstrate outstanding examination and assessment results.

Is this you? Your entry will depend on support of your University, identifying you as a high flier. Talk to your tutor about it and write to Lincoln's Inn telling them why you want one of these prizes. Give a copy of your letter to your tutor, and you will need to tell Lincoln's Inn who that it, so that they can get in touch with him or her.

Entries must be addressed to Education Department, The Honourable Society of Lincoln's Inn, Treasury Office, London WC2A 3TL and received by 4 July 2015.
