Let's Get Donating!



Some of you may have seen me post a link recently to a donation page for the Ipswich Legal Walk. I thought that today I would go into more detail.

On 27 June this year a number of legal advice centres and law firms/chambers will be taking part in a 10km walk around Ipswich, Suffolk.

The aim of this walk is to raise money for the Eastern Legal Support Trust and free legal advice centres in the Ipswich area. As we assist the Suffolk Legal Advice Centre with their law clinics, we thought that this would be the right centre for us to raise funds for.

The need for free legal advice has increased dramatically since the changes to legal aid. It is now, more than ever that people are in need of free legal advice. The Suffolk Law Advice Centre helps those that are vulnerable in the Ipswich area with this. The centre offers 30 minutes of free legal advice in areas such as family, employment, immigration, housing, small claims, wills and probate, community care, personal injury and dispute resolution, from legally qualified professional volunteers.

Helping these people can range from giving them various options for their legal issues, or it could simply be helping them to fill in forms/applications or writing letters.

We would be grateful if you could support us, we have a target of £500 and any contribution, no matter how small will be greatly appreciated.

Please find the link below for the fundraising page:

Here's hoping it won't be too warm on the day, I've been told that last year was unbearably hot!!
