Jurors are such a valuable part of the criminal justice system. Our ongoing research highlights this can be a difficult role. Juror Appreciation Week is our chance to say a huge ‘thank you’ to all jurors – past, present and future – for your tremendous hard work and dedication in creating a safe and fair society for us all.

It is an opportunity to express our thanks and appreciation to the hard work of all jurors who strive to uphold principles of fairness and equality before the law.
