Rebecca Hawkes-Reynolds was called in 2016 and was very fortunate to have been awarded the Lord Diplock Scholarship for her BPTC and is excited to be able to give back through being on Hall Committee. As a wheelchair user she would like to increase awareness of disabilities at the Bar but also encourage those with disabilities to consider such a career.

Jo Morris

Called in 2003, I benefitted from the Inn's training and I am keen to repay some of the Inn's generosity. I am a Middle Temple advocacy trainer. I assist with training upon the pupil's course and at Cumberland Lodge. I hope that I can contribute to the Hall Committee. I ran the Pupillage department at Church Court Chambers until 2017 just before my departure in 2018 to Charter Chambers. I have been appointed to the Working Group of the Kosovo Specialist Chambers where I am contributing to the creation of a Code of Conduct for members of this new tribunal.

Rebecca de Hoest

I am a third six pupil at Serjeants’ Inn chambers. I was called to the Bar in 2015 as an Astbury Scholar, and then worked for two years at the Bank of England, including in the ‘Brexit’ legal team. I have benefitted from invaluable advocacy training and financial support from the Middle Temple through the 2016 VIS moot and various essay competitions. I mentor LLM and BPTC students and am keen to expose these young lawyers to similar career-changing opportunities. In my spare time, I sing with the Bar Choral Society, rock climb, and attempt long-distance running. 

Nariandra Maharaj

I was called to the Bar at Middle Temple ("MT") in 2000 after several years of being an Accountant in my previous career. After an initial stage at the Self Employed Bar I joined the legal team at IBM and became a member of BACFI. I am currently a self-employed Legal Consultant. I also currently mentor King's College, London law students and newly qualified BACFI Barristers.

Ruth Kirby

I was a journalist, a cycle courier and an expert witness before joining the self employed Bar too many years ago to remember. I remain a barrister at 4pb chambers doing children and Court of Protection work. 

I have been teaching advocacy at Middle Temple for about ten years and recently joined the Hall Committee to try to contribute a little more to the running of the Inn which I admire and appreciate but which I believe needs energy and originality to remain relevant and to be more utilised by its members than I believe it currently is. 

Giles Bedloe

Giles was called to the Bar in 2001 and specialises in white collar crime, regulatory and related commercial law. He is an enthusiastic participant in the Inn’s social life as a committed Reveller and avid Burns-Nighter. He and his wife married at the Inn in 2007.
