The Guildford Legal Walk is a 10km sponsored walk through the picturesque Surrey Countryside led by HH Judge Alison Raeside, to raise vital funds for the provision of free legal advice in Surrey. Funds raised go directly to local legal advice agencies.
By taking part, you will be walking shoulder to shoulder with fellow members of the Surrey legal community. Judges, law firms, barristers chambers, advice agencies, in house legal departments, and university law groups will walk the breath-taking countryside route in unison, before enjoying a refreshing drinks reception provided by LLST.
Demand for legal advice services has risen dramatically over the past year. The rising cost of living has heaped immense pressure on legal advice agencies who are struggling to cope with such unprecedented demand. We believe everybody should be able to receive legal advice when they need it most. By joining the Guildford Legal Walk, you can help to ensure the people of your community have fair access to justice, and the beneficiary agencies can keep the lights on, and the doors open for the people who need them most.
The walk starts and finishes at Guildford County Court with drinks and nibbles.

The important thing is that we raise as much as possible for the advice agencies who are struggling to maintain services with the increased challenges created by the rising cost of living.
The number of people seeking help with Debt, Benefits, Homelessness and Employment has increased dramatically over the last year. Now more than ever it’s crucial to support the free legal advice agencies on the frontline.
Taking part in the Guildford Legal Walk raises vital funds for local legal advice agencies.
