It was a fantastic day on Monday 23 May for 75 members of the legal profession who embarked on a 10 km challenge and raised funds to support access to justice in Sheffield. The route took in the lovely sights the city has to offer, including the less well known parts of the city, and the weather was bright and breezy, a perfect spring day to walk and raise money for a vital cause.
We had a grand total of 10 teams signed up with the biggest teams on the day coming from Helena Kennedy Centre and Irwin Mitchell!
A big congratulations goes out to Irwin Mitchell, who topped the fundraising table having raised over £460! This is a huge achievement and we are very grateful to our team who pulled out all the stops to raise as much money as possible to support access to justice.
We were joined by a charity, the Helena Kennedy Centre. Charities like this one are often the last resort for people facing difficult and distressing legal circumstances and find themselves unable to pay for private legal advice. The funds raised by the Sheffield Legal Walk, and the YLST as a whole, will go to support these charities and more, throughout the region helping thousands of people every year navigate the complicated legal system.
This event ended with a welcoming finish line reception. It was a perfect end to a great walk and the drinks were very well received by our thirsty walkers.
The walk has broken all previous records, raising just under £2,000 so far. Without your contribution the Sheffield Legal Walk and the work of the YLST would not be possible.
