Chichester Legal Walk in aid of Citizens Advice returns
London Legal Support Trust (LLST) is delighted to confirm the Chichester Legal Walk is back for the twilight of the summer on Monday 12th September 2022, starting at 5pm with an approximate finish time of 8pm.
The 10km sponsored walk unites local law firms, barristers chambers, advice agencies, in house legal departments, and students to raise both awareness and funds for the provision of pro bono legal advice to some of the most vulnerable members of the community.
Teams will begin to arrive from 4.30pm for the circular route which starts and ends at the Chichester Festival Theatre with a free drinks reception. The walk will also incorporate some of the new Platinum Jubilee Country Park greenery.
LLST welcome any organisation, or individual, who are passionate about the fantastic cause of supporting their local community. There is still plenty of time for new teams to join, LLST will set up a fundraising page, and send regular newsletters in the lead up to the event so you have all the fundraising tips and logistical information you need.
In 2021, the Chichester Legal Walk raised over £3,500. The demand for advice services, especially in the areas of debt, benefits, homelessness and housing has increased dramatically during the pandemic, and this has increased again due to the rapid rise in cost of living. So, the funds raised by the walk are more important than ever this year. Taking part in the Chichester Legal Walk raises vital funds for local advice agencies including Citizens Advice Arun & Chichester, Citizens Advice Havant, and Citizens Advice in West Sussex.
