SBC Glasgow Open Doors Event

SBC Glasgow recently organised an Open Doors Event with Dundas & Wilson which was aimed at pupils in S4, S5 and S6 with an interest in studying Law.

SBC Glasgow Open Doors Event

Twenty five young people from Whitehills Secondary, Lochend Community High, Notre Dame, St Andrews Secondary and Rosshall Academy attended the event which consisted of two workshops and an office tour. Each group were joined by a lawyer who assisted them all day with their discussion exercises.  

The objectives for the event were as follows;
  • ·         Inspire young people (about further education, work and the workplace)
  • ·         Inspire young people to choose a career in law/to become lawyers
  • ·         To play a part in increasing diversity in the legal profession
  • ·         Build relations with and make impacts within our local communities
The Dundas & Wilson staff found the experience very rewarding, as did the pupils who were amazed and greatly informed with regards to a law firm and its many divisions. They all felt the session had a positive effect on them. 
 
Due to the success of this event, Dundas& Wilson have agreed to host further events at their offices in Edinburgh and London.
