The annual Legal Walk brings the legal community together to champion access to justice, supporting charities and organisations that provide essential advice to people facing issues such as housing insecurity, debt, domestic abuse and welfare rights.

Taking place on Wednesday 3^rd June, this year’s walk aims to build on the success of previous events, with participants encouraged to sign up, raise sponsorship, and help shine a spotlight on the importance of accessible legal support for all.

Funds raised through the Legal Walk will directly benefit local advice organisations across Northamptonshire, ensuring they can continue to provide life-changing guidance to individuals and families.

Thanks to local efforts, last year’s funds raised supported Citizens Advice Services Corby and Kettering, Citizens Advice West Northamptonshire and Cherwell, Northamptonshire Rights and Equality Council, and Community Law Service (Northampton and County).

Rachel McGrath, CEO, Northamptonshire Community Foundation, said: “As the grant-making partner, we recognise just how important the funds raised through the Legal Walk are for advice services facing growing demand. This event brings the legal community together to support access to justice locally, and we’re incredibly grateful to our partners for helping make that possible.”

The Legal Walk not only raises essential funds but also provides an opportunity to connect with peers across the legal sector, demonstrating a shared commitment to fairness, inclusion and community support.
