We recently welcomed Neurodiversity Training International into the Belfast Centre for sessions which provided our team with practical strategies to foster inclusion and support for neurodivergent colleagues - helping us build a more inclusive workplace. Dr Margaret Tedford from our Knowledge function volunteers with our in-house Disability Committee and, in today's article, shares her thoughts and personal experiences of neurodiversity at work. #Neurodiversity #InclusionMatters #belfast

Our Global Security team had a brilliant time at BSides Belfast last week, taking in insightful talks from leading cybersecurity experts and connecting with peers in Northern Ireland’s vibrant infosec community.

As part of our recent Make A Difference month, the team rolled up their sleeves at Ballymagowan Allotments, helping to support the local community and provide fresh produce for Foyle Foodbank and Apex’s Social Supermarket. This initiative is especially meaningful as we celebrate the firm’s 75th anniversary globally and ten years of our Belfast office. A huge thanks to everyone who got involved – a great way to mark these milestones by giving back! #MakeADifference #CommunitySupport

Another brilliant day was had by the Baker FC teams at the recent Business Fives Football Tournament, which brought together five-a-side teams from organisations across the city for a fun one-day competition in aid of our charity partners. Our Baker players represented the firm admirably with our men's team finishing in the semi-finals and our women's team narrowly missing out on the top spot to the admirable Options Technology. Our very own Ciara Byrne took home the Golden Glove, thanks to her strong defensive performance. While we might not have taken home the trophy this time, the real prize is in the friendships forged on the day and in our weekly training sessions! ⚽️ #teamwork #business5s #belfast #wellbeingatwork

Not only do secondments offer those in our Legal Professional team the opportunity to spend time in our offices worldwide, but also the chance to get involved with major projects within client teams. This summer, teammates from Belfast were on the road to Dublin, London, and across Europe as part of their secondments to major tech clients. Brilliant opportunities for brilliant people. #legalprofessional #lawcareers #belfast

We’re proud to sponsor the new football kit of the NOW Group Football Team - supporting a fantastic organisation that helps people with learning difficulties and autism achieve meaningful employment. It’s inspiring to see how sport can bring communities together, and we’re thrilled to play a part in their journey! Our relationship with NOW Group has grown over recent years, after becoming one of the first law firms in Northern Ireland to be JAM Card trained and to have supported the NOW Group in previous initiatives such as its healthy eating programme and by providing equipment for its social enterprise catering company. Thank you to NOW Group for the incredible work you do and for letting us be part of your team! #belfast #ASDawareness #community
