The St Albans Legal Walk is just around the corner!

25/8/2016

 The St Albans Legal Walk is just around the corner and as the days speed by the number of walkers continues to grow! We now have 8 teams and over 30 walkers committed to walking, running and sweating to support local advice agencies in their mission to ensure access to justice for all.

So far Taylor Walton LLP is leading in numbers with 12 walkers, if each of their team members raised £42 they would beat their fundraising target of £500 so please do sponsor them.

Raydens Solicitors must be following our fundraising tips to the letter! They have already raised over £340 and we hope they continue to build on this great start. Taylor Walton and Neves Solicitors LLP are hot on their heels, we’re hoping for some fierce competition for our top fundraiser spot!

Thank you to our sponsors Galio Jewellers and Sarah-J Coaching who are helping us all the way, without their support we couldn’t make the St Albans Legal Walk the fantastic success we know it’s going to be this year. Thanks also to our supporters, the Hertfordshire Law Society as well as Sweaty Betty, Lussmanns Fish & Grill, Neal’s Yard Remedies and Beer Shop St Albans for their raffle prize contributions.

We are expecting some warm late summer weather on 12 September, which will hopefully keep our walkers happy for their 10 km challenge.

We’re very excited to see you all there!

Not long now - we're excited for the St Albans Legal Walk!

We are really excited about the St Albans legal walk coming up in less than 6 weeks on 12 September. We already have 5 teams signed up and ready to walk and raise funds to support access to advice for all. We are proud to have Claire Sharp, Chair of the Hertfordshire Law Society, as our lead walker. 

The Eastern Legal Support Trust has been established to support the provision of free legal advice in St Albans and Hertfortshire since 2010 and the St Albans legal walk is an important part of our fundraising activities. The organisations we support make a huge difference in the lives of many people. The recent cuts to legal aid and the reduced household income for many working families due to the recession have increased the importance of free access to specialist legal advice for the poorest and most vulnerable people in our community.
 
Registration for the event will open from 5pm. The walk will start at 5:30. About two hours later walkers cross the finish line where refreshments will be gratefully received by thirsty walkers.
 
We would like to get as many people involved as possible, so gather your co-workers, friends, family, and why not dogs, to join us for an evening of walking and having fun while raising vital funds for legal advice agencies!
