It was a lovely sunny evening on Monday 20 June for 52 members of the legal profession who embarked on an 8 km challenge and raised funds to support access to justice in Chelmsford and East Anglia. The route took in the lovely sights the town has to offer and the weather was light and breezy, a perfect day to walk and raise money for a vital cause.
We had a grand total of 13 teams signed up with the biggest team on the day coming from Essex Legal Services!
A big congratulations goes out to Trinity Chambers, who topped the fundraising table having raised £545! This is a huge achievement and we are very grateful to their team who pulled out all the stops to raise as much money as possible to support access to justice.
We were joined by Chelmsford Citizens Advice Bureau and The Personal Support Unit. These charities are often the last resort for people facing difficult and distressing legal circumstances and find themselves unable to pay for private legal advice. The funds raised by the Chelmsford Legal Walk, and the ELST as a whole, will go to support these charities and others, throughout the region, helping thousands of people every year navigate the complicated legal system.
This event was supported by our generous sponsor, Fisher Jones Greenwood, who sponsored the welcoming finish line reception. It was a perfect end to a fantastic walk and the drinks were very well received by our thirsty walkers.
The walk has broken all previous records, raising over £1,700 so far. Without your contribution the Chelmsford Legal Walk and the work of the ELST would not be possible.
Please continue to fundraise and ensure that we can help more vital services than ever before.
