Justice for all initiative: DWF's commitment to Justice Reform

03 September 2025

The Justice for All Series is a year-long initiative focused on addressing the future challenges of the UK justice system through high-level events that bring together leaders from various sectors. 

The Justice for All Series is a bold new initiative aimed at exploring the future of justice in the UK. The year-long programme of high-level events will bring together leaders from the legal, political, corporate, and civic sectors to examine the urgent challenges facing modern justice systems and the investment and reform needed to address them. 

DWF is a proud supporter of the initiative, providing pro bono advisory services to help shape and deliver the series of events.   

Developed by Alderman Robert Hughes-Penney, Sheriff- Elect in the City of London 2025/26, the series is centred at the Old Bailey, the most iconic criminal court in the world and a symbol of the UK’s legal heritage. The series is sponsored by Serco, a provider of services and support to governments internationally, with UK operations spanning defence, space, healthcare, justice and migration, transport, and citizen services. 

The Justice for All Series will explore the financial, moral, and institutional requirements for delivering justice in the 21st century. It aims to identify practical strategies for improving judicial infrastructure, supporting survivors and the accused, reducing reoffending, and harnessing new technologies like AI for the public good.

The first of five events will launch this autumn, commemorating two major milestones: the 800th anniversary of the 1225 reissue of Magna Carta and the 10th anniversary of UN Sustainable Development Goal 16: Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions. 

Tracey Groves, Head of Sustainability and ESG Advisory Services, DWF, shared her thoughts on the initiative: 

"This ground breaking series offers a vital opportunity to consider the challenges and opportunities facing our legal system, from delays and complexity to questions of public confidence and exploration of why justice makes economic sense. I am proud to support an initiative that provides a vital platform to debate the issues and champion fairness, equality, and meaningful reform." 

The Justice for All Series is not just a programme of events, but a movement towards a more just and equitable society. It provides a platform for meaningful dialogue and collaboration, aiming to create lasting impact and drive forward the agenda for justice reform in the UK and beyond. This is a timely opportunity to shape both the conversation - and the future - of justice.
