London Legal walk 2023 - We're taking on 10K for justice

Doughty Street Chambers are delighted to be taking part in the #LondonLegalWalk on Tuesday 13th June.

Our team is: Raimonda Krasninkeviciute, Nerissa Douglas, Sam Cooper, Freddie Wilkins, Tim Broom, Ruby Peacock, Jessie Smith, James Whiting, Liv Mould, Antonia Benfield, Amanda Pannell, Sophy Miles, Naomi Smith, Finnian Clarke, Matthew Turner, Jonathan Palma, Ciara Godfrey, Rachel Woodward, Shauna Lyttle , Cynthia Francis, Lameesa Iqbal, Camila Herrera, James Wood KC and Janet Wood. 

We are walking with the Lord Chief Justice and thousands of lawyers to raise funds for the London Legal Support Trust, Advocate and the Free Representation Unit (FRU). The London Legal Walk is the biggest fundraising event in aid of free legal advice and support for everything from Law Centres and Citizens Advice services to refugee specialist support services. 

Over 13.4 million people live in poverty in the UK and advice providers are at breaking point with the growing need from their clients. Many people cannot afford legal help and we believe everybody should be able to receive legal advice when they need it most.

The London Legal Walk raises vital funds to ensure that legal help reaches our community's most vulnerable people. Receiving good legal advice at the right time can make a huge difference to people's lives reducing their chances of facing debt, poverty, homelessness, exploitation and discrimination.

The event supports over 100 legal advice agencies in London and the South East. We know that these agencies do a fantastic job in changing people's lives.

Your support is needed more than ever. Please sponsor our walkers as generously as you are able.

Many thanks for your support.
