About High Sheriff’s Law Lecture 2026
The High Sheriff’s Law Lecture in Oxfordshire is a key fixture in the county’s calendar, fostering connections between the legal and academic communities.
Organised by the High Sheriff of Oxfordshire, the event brings together legal professionals, civic leaders, law enforcement, and public figures to explore contemporary issues in justice, law, and society.
The 2026 lecture takes place on Thursday 05 February 2026 in the afternoon, with The Rt Hon. the Lord Boateng CVO PC DL as guest speaker. A trailblazing civil rights lawyer, MP, Cabinet Minister, diplomat, and peer, Paul Boateng will reflect on Hearing the Young Unheard, drawing on decades of public service.
The event will be hosted in the Gulbenkian Lecture Theatre at Oxford’s Law Faculty, St Cross Road, a venue familiar to fans of Inspector Morse as the fictional police HQ.
