The Hulme Law Group is an exclusive network connecting Hulme Grammar School alumni who are working in or have ties to the legal sector. The group brings together former pupils who share a passion for the law, fostering valuable connections and offering support to both alumni and current students.
Our purpose is threefold:
- to create a professional network for alumni in the legal industry
- to support the school and its pupils through mentoring, connections, and fundraising
- assist fellow alumni who are working in or considering a career in law.
With regular meetings held between Manchester and London, the group provides opportunities to network, gain industry insights, and share knowledge. Whether you are established in your legal career or just starting out, the Hulme Law Group offers a unique platform to grow, learn, and give back to the Hulme community.
Join us in building a thriving legal network that supports Hulme’s current and future generations of legal professionals.
Past events:
Our last event was on Thursday 19th June at Nine Chambers, Manchester
Our first event was on Thursday 20th February at Weightmans Law Firm, Manchester
