It was a fantastic sunny day on Monday 18 May for 186 members of the legal profession who embarked on a 10 km challenge and raised funds to support access to justice in Norwich and East Anglia. The route took in the lovely sights the city has to offer, including the less well known parts of the river, and the weather was light and breezy, a perfect spring day to walk and raise money for a vital cause.
We had a grand total of 22 teams signed up with the biggest teams on the day coming from UEA Law Society and Norfolk Public Law!
A big congratulations goes out to Aviva Legal Services, who topped the fundraising table having raised over £675! This is a huge achievement and we are very grateful to our team who pulled out all the stops to raise as much money as possible to support access to justice.
We were joined by two charities, Age UK Norwich and Norwich and Norfolk Community Law Service. 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 Norwich Legal Walk, and the ELST as a whole, will go to support these charities and more, throughout the region helping thousands of people every year navigate the complicated legal system.
This event was supported by our generous sponsors, Olsen Recruitment and Norfolk and Norwich Law Society, who along with Aviva, sponsored the welcoming finish line reception at the Marble Hall. It was a perfect end to a great walk and the drinks were very well received by our thirsty walkers.
The walk has broken all previous records, raising over £5,600 so far. Without your contribution the Norwich 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.
