The opportunity to do pro bono work and help vulnerable members of the community is a really rewarding part of my role at Ashurst, so I always make sure to put my hand up to help out when I have the capacity.
Every year, each clerkship cohort participates in the tendering project, where they pitch the firm to a prospective client – it really gets your competitive side going as you want your team to be the one to land the client!
I undertook a Summer 1 Clerkship at Ashurst in November 2023 and was invited back to work as a Paralegal whilst I complete the remainder of my Bachelors degree.
