This week a number of our members braved the elements to undertake the London Legal Support Trust 10xChallenge. Due to the pandemic, the usual London Legal Walk was unable to go ahead this year so individuals were encouraged to undertake their own challenges to raise much needed funds for free legal advice charities in London and the south east.

You can sponsor the team here.
