About our Wellbeing at the Bar programme
The Bar Council's Wellbeing at the Bar programme is a partnership with the Inns of Court, the Circuits, the Specialist Bar Associations and the Institute of Barristers' Clerks.
The programme aims to:
- Provide barristers and chambers personnel with the information and skills they need in order to stay well
- Support members of the profession through difficulties that affect a barrister's professional life
- Provide assistance to those who are supporting barristers in difficulty or crisis
