Cakes for justice: The Great Legal Bake 2022

There is no better way to raise money than through the medium of cake—so why not hit the kitchen this Pro Bono Week to raise some dough for access to justice?

The Great Legal Bake, taking place throughout Pro Bono Week (7–11 November), helps to raise funds for free frontline services which support some of society’s most vulnerable people, with £150,000 having been raised since it began in 2013. Over 100 organisations have already signed up for this year’s Bake.

This year will feature a photo competition, with prizes to be won for best themed cake, tastiest-looking cake and best cake overall, to be judged by Pro Bono Week Committee chair Toby Brown. To enter, make sure to share your creations on social media using the hashtag #GreatLegalBake, or send your photo entries to signups@llst.org.uk.

For more information—including guidance to hosting a Bake, recipe ideas and free posters and bunting—and to sign up, visit the website here
