During the first week of the UK’s Disability History Month we are pleased to be joined by Dr. Gregory Burke to discuss his path to the Bar and what progress has been made in the fight for the rights of disabled people.
Before coming to the Bar, Gregory founded the UK’s largest disability access information website AccessAble, recently celebrating it’s 20th anniversary. It currently serves 350 large organisations, including the English Premier League, M&S, Next, Ikea, a number of London Boroughs, 85 universities and 65 NHS Trusts. Gregory specialises in Employment Law where he acts for both Claimants and Defendants, as well as practicing in Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence.
In 2019 Gregory was awarded the ‘Chambers Diversity and Inclusion Award 2019; Future Leader of the Bar.’
