The Derby Legal Walk
The Derby legal Walk took place on Monday 21st June, whereby lots of members of the legal profession joined together to walk for access to Justice. At the time of writing, £1,585.00 has been raised – Derby had been set a target of £1,000.00, so we have reached this and beyond! The walk started at the Derby Law School, and we are grateful to the organisation and social distancing measures, when signing in that were place at the University to keep everyone safe. The walk aims to walk past as many law firms in the city as possible, and then to finish a walk along the canal towards pride park, before returning to the City. A big thank you to the walkers that took part – Alexander & Co, Freeths LLP, Flint Bishop, Elliot Mather, Cartwright King, Derby University and Derby City Council. Thank you to the High Sheriff for attending the registration, and Mr Justice Jeremy Baker and HHJ Williscroft for joining the walk. In total around 30 walkers raised money for access to justice.
