The Legally Safer Universities campaign spearheaded by ForThe100 with the assistance of TBD has been shortlisted for the Sheila McKechnie Foundation award in the Best Use of Law category.
Created in tribute to trade unionist and former director of Shelter, Dame Sheila McKenchie, the foundation set up in her name honours individuals or campaign groups that take on big organisations and challenge vested power. The Best Use of Law category celebrates “a campaign that has successfully used the law to drive change – whether using existing legislation to leverage rights and protections, or using strategic litigation to strengthen existing or create new legislation”.
Simon Marshall of TBD says "It’s definitely been a team effort, but I really need to take my hat off to TBD’s PR and Content Lead, Sophie Flint . She had done an absolutely smashing job on this campaign and been instrumental in driving it successfully forward. You’ll almost certainly have seen her work on the news this week (BBC, ITV, Channel 5…)
Thanks for all your heart work, Sophie!
