NEW EPISODE LIVE 🎙️🔥 Most people think fairness is built into the system. It isn’t. It’s shaped by the people within it. This week on @ukhealthradio , I’m joined by the incredible @elainerbanton , a barrister bringing clarity, intelligence and real depth to a conversation that affects all of us. This episode is powerful. We dive into fairness, systems, accountability, and how AI is beginning to influence decision-making at scale. We explore what happens when systems fail, why responsibility matters more than ever, and how trust is built or broken in the world we live in today. This isn’t just about law. It’s about integrity. It’s about how we move forward in a world that’s changing faster than we can process.✨️ If you care about justice, leadership, or the future of how decisions are made, this is one you need to hear. 🎧 Listen now on @ukhealthradio . The link is in my bio.👆🏽 #UKHealthRadio #ElaineBanton #AI #Fairness #Accountability

An inspiring evening at the launch of @vam_east , a powerful reminder that Black music is not simply culture; it is economic architecture. Generating huge value across the UK and globally: from live performance, publishing and broadcasting to fashion, brand partnerships, tourism, nightlife, streaming, education and the wider creative industries. It has shaped consumer markets, built billion pound ecosystems and helped to drive the UK’s cultural soft power on the world stage. Delighted to attend with @shirleyjthompsoncomposer and to spend the evening with extraordinary artists, curators and cultural leaders. #VAEast #BlackMusic #CreativeEconomy #ArtsLeadership #CulturalPolicy

It was such a pleasure to come and talk to the juniors at #RhodesAvenuePrimarySchool about being a Barrister and how we can help others along the way; lifting as we climb. I was heartened by their enthusiasm and engagement. The knotty questions and thoughtful comments. Thank you for having me! @rapsa_rhodes ❤️

Delighted to be accepted onto the delegation as a UN Women UK delegate to the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW). CSW states the current global position: "Globally, we’re still centuries away from gender equality. Estimates say it will take up to 286 years to close legal gaps and remove discriminatory laws, 140 years for women to be represented equally in positions of power and leadership at work, and at least 40 years to achieve equal representation in national parliaments. As of the end of 2022, it’s estimated that around 383 million women and girls live in extreme poverty. And every 11 minutes, a woman or girl is killed by someone in her own family." I am keen to contribute to this significant gathering of gender equality advocates working for meaningful change and to accelerate progress towards gender equality. #UNWomenUK #genderequality #Unitednations #csw67
