Podcast: Inside Accountancy episode 14 – 100 years of women in accountancy, law and veterinary science

In the latest episode of Inside Accountancy, we spoke to Anna Bradshaw, member of the Law Society’s EU Committee, and Amanda Boag, senior vice president of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, alongside Wilkinson to reflect on 100 years of women in accountancy, law and veterinary science.

Women were permitted to practice in the three professions as part of the reforms made in the Sex Disqualification (Removal) Act 1919. Just over 100 years on, how have the professions changed, what still needs to improve and how has progress differed between the professions?

In this podcast we discuss:

  • The history behind women moving into the three professions
  • How attitudes to women have changed over the last 100 years
  • What the future holds for women in the three professions
