Join our public lecture and debate on Wednesday 24 July, 5:30-7pm to find out about tattoos and the law
As more and more people choose to be tattooed in the UK, how tattoos and the law interact becomes increasingly important.
For tattoo artists, there are growing concerns around tattoo copying, and questions of whether tattoos are protected by copyright law. For tattooed people, there are questions about discrimination and whether employers can choose not to hire you, simply because you are tattooed.
Join our public lecture and debate, led by Bournemouth University legal expert Melanie Stockton-Brown to find out about your tattoos and the law. Discuss your own experiences and potential legal changes.
