For this year's Pride special, our theme is Home and Away, celebrating the LGBT+ community under COVID-19 restrictions. In our Pride podcast series we speak to LGBT+ legal professionals in different countries around the world to find out how the pandemic has affected them and how Pride is being marked this year. Our second podcast is a discussion with Tinashe Chipendo, who shares his experiences of living, and working as a lawyer, in Manchester, and also talks about the experiences of LGBT+ people in Zimbabwe.

Ewan Watson, a member of the Law Society's LGBT+ Committee, is the host of this podcast. This week, he and Helen Randall, a senior equity partner and the Diversity Champion at Trowers & Hamlins LLP, interview Tinashe Chipendo. Listen to the last episode, with Heather Capell Bramble.
