Grace Rose Gwynne
One of the youngest women to become a barrister, when she was called to the Bar at just 21 years old
Birmingham-based Grace, is one of the youngest barristers in the UK, after being called to the Bar aged just 21. She went viral after a reel featured and highlighted the sexism and ageism she challenges she faces..
Grace, a media broadcaster, who talks candidly about the prejudices she experiences as a junior barrister working in a male-dominated profession, advocates for more young female representation at the Bar.
Here is a link to a TEDtalk Grace recently did called “Fighting for A Place in the Old Boys Club.”
Despite her personal challenges Grace, who was the first person in her family to go to University and was not Oxbridge-educated, has proved women can succeed – as not only is she one of the youngest barristers in the UK she is now working for one of the most prestigious Chambers in the country.
And the young barrister is now writing a book about her experiences – to try to encourage and inspire other young women to become barristers and the drive, tenacity, ambition and motivation that is required to achieve your goal and be the best of the best.
