Permanent exhibition 'The Law & Us' opens to the public

An immersive exhibition drawing on 70 appeals heard at the Supreme Court, Judicial Committee of the Privy Council and House of Lords, has opened to the public

‘The Law and Us’, located at the Supreme Court buildings in Parliament Square, invites visitors to view case studies, audio-visual materials and wall panels on the cases and consider their own response to the legal issues involved. Three of the Justices reflect on their careers, and Lord Reed explains in a video how to ‘think like a judge’.

Vicky Fox, the court’s chief executive, said she hoped visitors would ‘feel welcome, curious and inspired as they explore why the law matters, and why independence, impartiality and access to justice are so important’.
