Angharad became a Garden Court Chambers tenant in October 2020 and is seeking to build a practice in housing, community care, and wider public law.

Angharad commenced pupillage at Garden Court in October 2019, and was supervised by housing law barrister Liz Davies (1st six) and criminal defence barrister Minka Braun (2nd six).

Housing Law and Community Care Law

Before commencing pupillage Angharad was employed by the Hackney Community Law Centre as a housing paralegal. She has experience of the full range of housing work, including homelessness, possession and disrepair, in addition to accommodation related aspects of community care law. 

Angharad has spoken at Garden Court Chambers webinars including 'Locked Down and Shut Out: Evictions and rough sleeping this winter' which looked at the law concerning the eviction process and rough sleeping.
