We’ve raised £6,976.12 so far! A big thank you to those who participated in the Cardiff Legal Walk!

It was a lovely autumn evening on Monday 29 September for 182 members of the legal profession who embarked on an 10km challenge , which incorporated the Three Courts Walk, and raised funds to support access to justice in Cardiff and in Wales. The route took in the lovely sights the city has to offer and the weather was light and breezy, a perfect day to walk and raise money for a vital cause.
 
We had a grand total of 28 teams signed up with the biggest team on the day coming from Cardiff University Law Society!
 
A big congratulations goes out to Asylum Justice who topped the fundraising table having raised £1,170! This is a huge achievement and we are very grateful to their team who pulled out all the stops to raise as much money as possible to support access to justice.
 
We were joined by Asylum Justice, Cardiff Vale CAB, CILEx Cardiff and South East Wales, Newport Citizens Advice Discrimination Team, the Personal Support Unit, and Race Equality First. These charities 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 Cardiff Legal Walk, and the RJWCCC 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.
  
The walk has broken all previous records, raising over £6,900 so far. Without your contribution the Cardiff Legal Walk and the work of the RJWCCC would not be possible.
 
Please continue to fundraise and ensure that we can help more vital services than ever.
