In common with our sister legal support trusts, it is our policy that 100% of funds raised by advice charities (such as Law Centres, Citizens Advice Bureaux and other independent advice agencies), as well as university law clinics/pro bono schemes, through the ELST, will be onward donated to that advice charity/university without deduction. ELST will receive and administer all funds and will distribute these funds after each event.
Law firms, barristers' chambers, in-house legal teams and other groups, will fundraise for ELST's main pot which is distributed via our grants rounds, but may, if they wish, nominate a local legal advice charity of their choosing, to receive 50% of funds raised. This policy works well and aims to ensure that as many advice charities as possible can benefit from the funds raised by walkers.
