Nuffield Foundation has appointed Jenny Beck as Chair of the Nuffield Family Justice Observatory’s board.
Jenny Beck is a family lawyer, founding partner and Director of Beck Fitzgerald, committed to accessible and fair justice and the rights of the individual. Jenny specialises in all aspects of family law with particular interest in complex cases concerning children.
Recognising that family breakdown involves so much more than the law, Jenny is committed to working with clients to understand and support their needs to help achieve results which are fair.
As Chair, Jenny will guide the strategic goals of our board to ensure the Nuffield FJO achieves maximum impact for children and families. She will also lead the board to be as effective as it can be, as well as acting as an ambassador for the organisation. Jenny will also work closely with the director, Lisa Harker.
The NFJO is fully funded and hosted by the Nuffield Foundation and, as such, responsibility rests with the Trustee Board of the Nuffield Foundation, allowing the NFJO Board to focus on strategy and development. Jenny Beck (KC) Hon said:
“I am looking forward to working with the board, which is made up of diverse and talented individuals from across the family justice system, building on the successes it has already achieved. We will continue to act with purpose to support genuine impact for children and families at a critical moment in their lives.”
Tim Gardam, Chief Executive of the Nuffield Foundation said:
“The founding Chair, Sir James Munby, has come to the end of his term, and we thank him for his influence and impact in leading the Nuffield FJO from its inception. Since it started four years ago, the Nuffield Family Justice Observatory has established itself as a highly respected, innovative, and influential organisation in its field, putting data and evidence at the heart of the family justice system. We warmly welcome Jenny and look forward to her contribution building on progress so far.”
Jenny is a founding director and an award-winning family lawyer committed to accessible justice and the rights of the individual. She specialises in complex financial disputes and helping resolve arrangements for children.
She is an accredited Resolution specialist and an Advanced Family Law Panel member. In 2021 Jenny was made an Honorary Kings Counsel (KC Honoris Causa) in recognition of her contribution to changing the law of England and Wales. She has recently been appointed as Chair of the Nuffield Family Justice Observatory.
