Womble Bond Dickinson (WBD) has achieved Disability Confident Leader status – the highest accreditation in the Department for Work and Pensions’ scheme which recognises and supports employers who recruit and retain people with disabilities.

WBD employs over 1,100 people across eight offices in the UK and has been a Disability Confident Employer since 2018. The ‘Leader’ accreditation recognises the firm’s commitment to lead the way on employing people with disabilities as well as helping other businesses become disability confident.

The firm is one of only five law firms in the UK to achieve the accreditation.

Sally Dallow, the firm’s partner lead for responsible business, said: “As a firm we are committed to building an ever more sustainable, inclusive and progressive business and all our networks play an important role in that. It is great to see the success of our Disability Network and to celebrate the way it is driving positive change and inclusion.”
