Chambers joined thousands of friends and colleagues on the annual London Legal Walk on 18 May 2015 to help raise funds for the London Legal Support Trust. Chambers raised over £800 for this very worth cause, but there is still time to sponsor us by clicking here to visit our fundraising page.
The trust works to support law centres and legal advice agencies in London and the South East by providing them with grant funding alongside other forms of support. They do this by holding large fundraising events, most notably the London Legal walk, and then delivering the funds raised to the agencies where they are most needed through grant rounds. They offer their knowledge and experience of the sector to help the agencies to become more sustainable and help to partner them with law firms and chambers who want to help them ensure that the law is fair.
The London Legal Support Trust is part of a network of seven Legal Support Trusts across England and in Wales working with the Access to Justice Foundation to support pro bono and advice agencies, ensuring funds can be distributed where needed most throughout England and Wales.
