Hackney Legal Walk – Saturday 28th September 2024

 
Sign Up

The Hackney Legal Walk is a 10km sponsored walk to raise vital funds for the provision of free legal advice in Hackney. 100% of the funds raised go directly to legal advice agencies in the local area.

By taking part, you will be walking shoulder to shoulder with fellow members of the Hackney legal community. Law firms, barristers’ chambers, advice agencies, in house legal departments, and university law groups will walk the 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 Hackney 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 begins and ends (with drinks) at The Princess of Wales (E5 9RB). Registration open from 10am.

Why We Walk

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.
