Escape from your desk in the cause of justice this year and raise funds for the London Legal Support Trust (LLST). The LLST, which organised the London Legal Walk each year, has spaces available for Spartan, a 5K obstacle course in Windsor on 7 October. Spartan will, for the first time, include a legal heat, hosted by Grant Thornton LLP. During this epic event, about 50 teams from the legal industry will tackle more than 20 obstacles in the woodlands of the Windsor estate, emerging muddied but glorious. For more information, email chantelle.roles@uk.gt.com.
