The York Legal Walk – 28th June 5.30pm

June 28, 2021 @ 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Why do we walk?

The need for free legal advice centres has grown in the past few years. The recession has increased poverty and reduced support services. Meanwhile funding for the advice centres themselves has reduced.

The organisations we support:

  • Prevent families being made homeless
  • Prevent destitution
  • Help older people gain the support to which they are entitled
  • Help women and children who have been trafficked for domestic servitude or prostitution.

Why should you take part?

We simply can’t overcome the effects of the huge reduction in government and local authority funding over the past few years.  What we can do is to ensure that many of the people most in need get help who would otherwise have been denied.

By taking part in the York Legal Walk and seeking sponsorship from your friends, family and colleagues, you will be helping to secure vital funds needed for this important cause.

What will happen on the day?

**Please note that the organisers will be following government guidelines continuously throughout the pandemic and arrangements are subject to change.**

​We hope to welcome the York Legal Walk in person keeping all participants safe.

We are thankful to Citizens Advice York and the Yorkshire Law Society for helping to put this event together.

Registration will be open between 5.00pm and 5.30pm and we ask that all participants report to register before having a photograph taken with our lead walkers. Once this has been done you are ready to set off on the 10km walk and we wish you the best of luck!

We will be running a photography challenge and encourage you to enter by tweeting your photographs from the event @YorkshireLST using the hashtag #legalwalk.

The post-walk celebration will begin upon your arrival at the end venue and we would like to invite you to join us for a complementary drink courtesy of Bar Revolution to celebrate your enormous success!
