The King has appointed Heledd Llwyd Najib to be a District Judge on the advice of the Lord Chancellor, the Right Honourable Alex Chalk KC MP and the former Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales, the Right Honourable The Lord Burnett of Maldon. 

The former Lord Chief Justice deployed her to the Midlands Circuit, based at Coventry Combined Court, with effect from 8 January 2024.

Heledd Llwyd Najib, previously known as Heledd Llwyd Williams, will be known as District Judge Najib. She was called to the Bar (Gray’s Inn) in 1999. She was appointed as a Fee-paid Judge of the First-tier Tribunal, assigned to the Immigration and Asylum Chamber, in 2019.
