The Victoria Fisher Memorial Prize
Victoria Fisher was an academic and feminist who lectured in law at the University of Leicester from 1979 until her tragic death in 1986. As a testament to her life and work, the Law School set up a Prize fund from money raised after Victoria's death. The purpose is to stimulate and encourage interest in the topic of Women and the Law, an area with which Victoria herself was closely involved.
A prize of £250 is offered annually to the best essay submitted on a topic related to Women and the Law. Entries are encouraged from people regardless of age, experience, qualifications or place of residence. The only requirement is that candidates should never have had work published in a learned journal or as a non-fiction book.
