A terrific, warm evening last night. @RosieBoycott spun a 'Desert Island Poetry' event, questions around @JamesThorntonCE's life from childhood to now, and his work saving the planet through law, with readings from his new collection WAYMARKS. Thanks to @ClientEarth for hosting.

I’m thrilled to welcome ClientEarth’s new CEO @LauraClarkeCE. For the past 15 years, @ClientEarth has become a hugely impactful organisation, from humble beginnings. I'm so proud of what the team has achieved, and look forward to seeing it grow stronger under Laura’s leadership.
