The exhibition celebrated the centenary of the admission of women to the legal profession. Today the Middle Temple has in excess of 8000 women members, 160 women Benchers, amongst whom are several High Court judges, one Court of Appeal judge and many very distinguished law professors at universities throughout the UK.

Senior Criminal Clerk, Phil Jones said: “I am delighted to see Blondel recognised by the Middle Temple. She has worked tremendously hard to achieve what she has. To see her recognised in this way is a fitting tribute to her and her family.”
