Chemical contamination is not a distant or abstract problem – it's here, in our communities. The ever-growing issue of ‘forever chemicals’ is becoming impossible to ignore. Leigh Day's Environmental Team is pleased to invite you to a free in-person panel event on Thursday 2 October, 2:30pm to 5:30pm.

Environmentalists, scientists, academics and community voices will come together to confront the urgent issue of chemical contamination and explore how we can take action.

After the panel, stay for a networking and drinks reception - an opportunity to connect, share ideas, and build momentum for change.
