Judge Rinder Explains the London Legal Walk Fund Raising Challenge

CHARITY SUPPORT - The London Legal Walk returns on the 5th October but this year the organisers say it is going virtual! With huge demand for free legal services your help in supporting this initiative is vital.

Please find a video message from Rob ‘Judge’ Rinder below to find out more about the event, why your support is needed now more than ever, and how to register.

What is the London Legal Walk 10xChallenge?

Take on 10k your way, whether that is walking, running, cycling, skipping or space-hopping your way to 10km.

 Or you can showcase your skills instead of walking by taking on any challenge to a multiple of 10 that can attract sponsorship. That could be baking 10 cakes, writing 10 poems, 100 minutes of your favourite exercise class (Yoga, Pilates, Zumba), 1,000-star jumps/sit ups, or doing a team challenge to reach 10,000 or even 100,000 together.

The cause

Many advice agencies have reported a six-fold increase in demand as a result of the pandemic, and so while the Walk cannot go ahead in its traditional format, we must not give up the fight for access to justice. Fundraising for free legal advice services is more critical than ever and agencies are continuing to do a fantastic job in preventing homelessness, resolving debt problems, gaining care for the elderly, and fighting discrimination and exploitation. But they need our support.

What do you need to do?

 Register here and join thousands of walkers, cyclists, runners and hula-hoopers who will be taking part on the 5th October. You don’t need to have your full team together to sign up. Only one person needs to register for now and the charity will set you up with a fundraising page via Virgin Money Giving.

So do please support this intiative.
