Launch 2020 with plans to boost access to justice while keeping fit by pledging support for a London Legal Support Trust (LLST) project

Next month is the Great Legal Bake. Join the 120 teams already signed up to raise dough for justice during the week 10-14 February. The London Legal Walk, the biggest fundraising event in the legal calendar, takes place on 8 June. If that’s not tough enough for you, run the  London Marathon 2020―the LLST has one place available if you can raise a minimum £3,000―or there are two places available for the Brighton Marathon on 19 April.
