Senior judges, City lawyers and caseworkers working in frontline services were among more than 15,000 people taking part in this year’s London Legal Walk.
Now in its fifteenth year, the popular event is expected to raise more than £850,000 for free legal advice services in London and the South East. The 2019 Walk also celebrated one hundred years of women being able to practise law with an all-women group leading the procession. The group (pictured) included Lady Hale, Baroness Kennedy, Solicitor General Lucy Frazer QC MP, and president of the Law Society, Christina Blacklaws.
Bob Nightingale, head of fundraising at the London Legal Support Trust, which organises the walk, said: ‘Once again the legal profession turned out in force. The funds raised will help thousands of people at times of crisis.’
