Sad Passing of Shona Killen

“It is with shock and great sadness that the Bar of Northern Ireland has learned of the sudden passing of our esteemed member, Shona Killen this weekend while on holiday in Spain. Called to the Bar in 2011, Shona was a well-known and highly respected young barrister, endeared to all who knew her and renowned for her fundraising efforts. On behalf of the Bar, I would like to express our deepest condolences to her friends and family, assuring them of our thoughts and prayers and the provision of any and all support we can offer during this most difficult time.”

Liam McCollum QC, Chairman of the Bar of Northern Ireland

Shona Killen had planned to take part in the Belfast Memory Walk on the 17th September at Stormont Estate. Anyone who wishes to make a donation in her memory can do so via her JustGiving fundraising page.
