Move for justice in 2026

The London Legal Support Trust (LLST) is kicking off 2026 with a fresh call to action—inviting supporters to get active while helping to secure access to justice for those who need it most

This year’s programme features a new range of fun, inclusive challenge events designed for all abilities, from first-time participants to seasoned fundraisers. Whether you prefer running, cycling or team-based challenges, every mile covered will help raise vital funds to support free legal advice and representation.

Highlights from the 2026 calendar include the Paris Marathon, Hackney Half Marathon, Royal Parks Half Marathon, the London to Paris Cycle, the Spartan Challenge and the Inflatable 5km. Participants don’t need to be 'fit' already—just enthusiastic. LLST provides support throughout, ensuring everyone can take part with confidence.

By joining a challenge, supporters invest not only in their own wellbeing but also in a fairer society. Every step, mile and minute moved helps keep access to justice within reach.

Those interested can register their interest via the LLST website. For further information, contact signups@llst.org.uk.
