Parklane Plowden would like to congratulate Lydia Reed and Avaia Williams who appear in the 2026 Pro Bono Recognition List of England and Wales published on 20 April 2026.
The List, now in its third year, is a cross-profession initiative endorsed by the Lady Chief Justice which seeks to recognise lawyers from across England and Wales who have dedicated over 25 hours towards pro bono in the previous year.
We are proud of Lydia and Avi’s contribution to pro bono over the past 12-months. Lydia recently represented a claimant through Advocate, successfully negotiating a favourable settlement for her client to ahead of a multi-day final hearingin the Employment Tribunal. Acting through Advocate, Avi recently succeeded on an appeal against a refusal to discharge a Special Guardianship Order and he continues to provide substantial pro bono assistance to Not Beyond Redemption, representing incarcerated or recently released mothers.
