	Description:		The Cambridge Pro Bono Project (CPP) hosted this lecture in the CPP Colloquium Series, supported by the Centre for Public Law. The lecture was given by Martha Spurrier, Director of Liberty, at the Faculty of Law on 14 November 2017. She spoke about 'Human Rights and Access to Justice in a Post-Brexit World'. Martha joined Liberty as Director in May 2016. She arrived from Doughty Street Chambers, where she specialised in defending access to justice and the rights of women, children and disabled people. In 2015 Martha co-founded the ‘Act for the Act’ campaign, which put posters on trains, buses and billboards across the country telling the stories of men, women and children who had used the Human Rights Act when things went wrong in their lives. Martha was previously a lawyer at the mental health charity, Mind, and at the Public Law Project. For more information on the Cambridge Pro Bono Project see https://www.law.cam.ac.uk/cpp
