Congratulations to all those who will receive pupillage offers this morning. This was my first year on the pupillage panel and I loved every minute of it. We saw some real talent! For those who don’t receive offers today do not be disheartened...

A lot of people miss out on pupillage because they just aren’t ready yet. So keep going, you can do it! I know how it feels to not get that offer that you were hoping and praying for. You will hear a lot today that everything happens for a reason and it really does...

If I had got that offer I hoped for first time around I would have actually ended up starting pupillage 5 months later. I wouldn’t have relocated. I wouldn’t have met all of the fantastic people I work with now. I wouldn’t have moved to Wilberforce Chambers.

I wouldn’t have met my fiancé. I wouldn’t have bought the house that I now love. Everything really does happen for a reason. Believe in the process it will happen for you!
