Holdsworth Presidential Address: Dame Elizabeth Gloster

Every year the Holdsworth Club invites a prominent judge or lawyer to be the Holdsworth President for that year. The main duty is to deliver the Holdsworth Presidential Address, a lecture on a topic of their choice.

The Address has been delivered every year since 1928 and the list of past Holdsworth Club Presidents reads like a Who’s Who of the most prominent lawyers of the past 80+ years.

This year’s Holdsworth President is Dame Elizabeth Gloster,  Lady Justice of Appeal. Lady Justice Gloster practiced law at One Essex Court in the Middle Temple and was, from 2010-12, Head of the Commercial Court.
