Members

At Lincoln’s Inn, our members are at the heart of everything we do. This section of the website is directed particularly at those who take, or would like to take, an active part in the life of the Inn: whether by assisting in its governance as a Bencher or member of the Bar Representation Committee; or simply by using our services and attending our wide programme of events.

Professional Community

We offer a number of education and training programmes, societies and groups, and various opportunities to get involved in the governance and professional community of the Inn.

A meeting takes place in the Ashworth Centre. Attendees sit around rectangular tables pushed together in a boardroom format. A laptop and a tablet with a keyboard attached are open on the desks.

Representation

Ensuring that the interests of members are represented is central to the Inn’s governance. There are many ways that members can contribute to the governance of the Inn.
