The Durham University Mooting Society Crest

Durham Mooting Society is open to any member of Durham University or the Durham University Department of Law.

The Mooting Society exists to promote the art of oral legal argument through the familiarisation of mooting rules and procedures. This society is open to students of all disciplines, with a key focus on law students. The Society aims to hold regular workshops and to provide entry into mooting competitions throughout the year. We also aim to invite guest speakers along the lines of Barristers, Solicitors, and other members related to the field of legal argument, as well as holding socials throughout the year.<ref>http://www.dur.ac.uk/mooting.society/</ref>
