​It is time to lace up those walking shoes as the Exeter Legal Walk is fast approaching. If you would like to take part, there is still time for you to join us by registering here.

We currently have 19 teams signed up and a total of 144 walkers, with our biggest teams coming from Churches Housing Action Team (Mid Devon) Ltd, and the University of Exeter School of Law all raising vital funds to support access to advice for all. 

Top of the fundraising table is the wonderful Citizens Advice Bureau Exeter team who have so far raised a fantastic £530! This is a fantastic achievement and a hugely important part of making this year's Exeter Legal Walk bigger and better than ever before. 

So far, the walk has raised just under £1100 altogether. This is a great start but we still need everyone to continue fundraising as much as possible to support local advice charities. 

The charities supported by the Exeter Legal Walk help thousands of people every year gain proper access to justice. These charities are often the last resort for people facing difficult and distressing legal circumstances but without resources to pay for private legal advice. Without this charitable work, many vulnerable people would be left alone to navigate the court and justice system without any advice or support. 

We're proud to have several charities walking with us on Monday the 6th, Somerset Community Care Matters, People's Support Unit Exeter, East Devon Citizens Advice Bureau, Citizens Advice Exeter, and the Churches Housing Action Team. Please help us to continue to support the vital work they do in the local community by raising as much as you can in the Exeter Legal Walk. 

It looks set to be a fantastic evening. A reminder that event registration on the day is open from 5 pm with the walk starting at 5:30 pm. A celebratory drink will be waiting for you at the finish line. 

A big thank you to our wonderful supporters Devon and Somerset Law Society and Devon CILEx who are supporting and promoting our event. As we need sponsorship in order to be able to continue running our legal walk events, their support is invaluable and key to continuing the work of the South West Legal Support Trust.

We are very excited to see all of you on Monday 6th of June. The event would not be possible without your contribution.

The Exeter Legal Walk cannot come fast enough and as the days speed by, the number of walkers continues to grow! We now have 18 teams and over 130 walkers committed to walking, running and sweating to support local advice agencies in their mission to ensure access to justice for all.

So far, the University of Exeter's School of Law is leading in numbers with 23 walkers, if each their team members raised £25, they would exceed their fundraising target of £500, so please do sponsor them. 

Citizens Advice Exeter must be following out fundraising tips to the letter! They have already raised over £350, we hope you can continue to keep it rising! Magdalen Chambers and Cartridges Solicitors are hot on their heels; we're hoping for some fierce competition for our top fundraiser spot!
 
 
We are expecting a nice warm weather on June 6th to help our walkers enjoy their 10 km challenge. And to celebrate the finish line, there will be drinks provided for everyone, cheers!

We're very excited to see you all there!
