Fancy an autumnal walk while raising valuable funds for law charities? 

Then join in with Walk the Thames on Saturday, 14 October—a half or full walking marathon along the river Thames. Start at 9am from Tower Bridge and walk the whole marathon to Hampton Court or stop halfway in Putney.

If you prefer, join in with the walkers at Putney and walk the second leg to Hampton Court. Lord Justice Haddon-Cave will be running the whole way—keep pace with the lycra-clad judge if you can or enjoy a slower pace and proceed at a gentle stroll.

Sir Peter Gross will be leading the walkers from Putney.
