The Oxford Legal Walk is a 10km sponsored walk through the city of Oxford, led by Amanda Ponsonby MBE, High Sheriff of Oxfordshire, and HH Judge Jo Vincent. Registration for the 2021 event is now open – click below to sign up.
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 COVID-19 and lockdown.
The number of people seeking help with Debt, Benefits and Employment has increased dramatically since the start of the pandemic. Those seeking help with Domestic Violence has also risen sharply and, in September, when the stay on evictions is lifted there will be a “tsunami” of people facing homelessness.
Taking part in the Oxford Legal Walk raises vital funds for Citizens Advice Oxford, Rose Hill & Donnington Advice Centre, Oxfordshire Welfare Rights, Shelter Thames Valley, and Agnes Smith Advice Centre.
