“We would like to thank all of the competitors for their hard work and effort throughout the competition. We are constantly impressed by the standard of work and this year was no exception. We hope that everyone who competed enjoyed and benefited from their participation and that they take away from it that practising Planning, Environmental and/or Public Law at the Bar is a rewarding and stimulating career.” Lord Carnwath

“Congratulations to the winners of the final of this year's Landmark Chambers’ Judicial Review Moot. It was another excellent year for the Landmark Chambers’ Moot competition and a welcome return to mooting in person. We thought the standard was very high and we commend all the participants who have taken part in this year’s competition. Landmark hopes that they enjoyed the competition and given them a taste of the fascination and enjoyment that can be found in a practice in Planning, Environment and Public Law at the Bar.” David Elvin QC

Landmark’s Planning, Environment and Public team would like to thank all of the Universities that took part this year for making the competition a success.
