2020 charity: not everyone enjoys Christmas

 

For anyone affected by debt, poverty or homelessness, it can be a difficult time of year.

However, legal advice can sometimes resolve these issues. The London Legal Support Trust (LLST) is therefore asking legal professionals to give their time to help fundraise for access to justice agencies. Join 70 teams who have signed up for the Great Legal Bake on 10-14 February 2020 (or if those dates don’t suit, choose a different week) via the LLST website, or look ahead to the annual London Legal Walk on 8 June.
