London Legal Walk 10xChallenge

Lawyers have thrown themselves into the London Legal Walk 10xChallenge―the replacement for the annual London Legal Walk

Walking 10km remains the most popular activity, but one team member from Forsters has pledged to do 100 minutes of ballet alongside their running and cycling colleagues, while Taylor Rose has pledged to run, walk and cycle an astonishing 10,000 miles. Not to be outdone, the London Legal Support Trust (LLST), which is organising the Challenge, will host a live virtual 100-minute yoga class, open to all, courtesy of Totally Yoga.

More than 600 teams and 4,000 entrants have registered to raise funds for free legal advice charities, which are reporting a huge uptake in demand and need all the help they can get.

Find out more about the Challenge, on 5 October, at: tinyurl.com/LLSTLLW20.
