Sports
Camille has been a member of Chambers for over 20 years practising almost exclusively in crime.
Part of that work includes the presentation of mitigations, both personal and in relation to criminal offences, in order to secure the most lenient penalty on behalf of the lay client.
The skills and experience acquired during her career are applicable and relevant to sports discipline hearings, including that relating to doping allegations.
Camille has been a committee member of an athletics club, at an amateur level, for a number of years. During that time she had responsibility for Child Protection and Welfare. On occasion this has required making decisions in relation to club discipline, membership and welfare. It has also been necessary to mediate in disputes.
Outside of work, Camille enjoys running and is a Boston Marathon qualifier 2020 and a Marathon des Sables finisher 2022. She is still managing to run reasonably fast – 78% age graded 5k.
