Family Justice Council - 2021 Bridget Lindley Memorial Lecture: What do we mean by a family?



I chose this title out of respect for Bridget Lindley, whose work with the Family Rights Group so enriched our idea of what it means to be a family these days. The Office of National Statistics defines a family as a couple, whether of the same or opposite sexes, and with or without children, or a single parent with one or more children.
