Professor Barrett in whose honour the lecture was given, is an Emeritus Professor of Law at Middlesex University. She was one of the first female Professors of Law in the UK and Ireland and former Head of School at Middlesex University. Prof Barrett is to this day, a leading authority on Health & Safety Law. Prof. Barrett perfectly represents Middlesex University, as she joined Hendon College, which went on to become Middlesex Polytechnic, before ultimately becoming Middlesex University.
