CONFIRMED SPEAKERS

We’re proud to announce LawCare as the official charity partner for GBLO 2025. While GBLO is known for its bold energy—think monster trucks and the voice of the X Factor—it’s also about creating space for the conversations that matter. LawCare, the mental health charity for the legal sector, offers vital support to those working in law. At this year’s event, we’ll hear powerful personal stories from legal professionals and shine a light on the importance of wellbeing across the profession.
