The Great Legal Quiz 2022: Trial by trivia

It is nearly time to put on the thinking caps, as the Great Legal Quiz returns on Wednesday 30 November.

The London Legal Support Trust (LLST) will be hosting the quiz at Ye Olde Cock Tavern on Fleet Street from 7pm. Teams can join in-person (although only two tables remain, so speedy booking is advised), or opt to join the quiz remotely. Quizzes can also be hosted separately in a local pub, office or online, as the same questions will be provided for all participants.

As well as the opportunity to hoist the Great Legal Quiz trophy, a range of prizes will be up for grabs including BrewDog products and experience vouchers. All funds raised will go directly to LLST to help support access to justice for all. 

More information is available here, and you can register your team using this form.
