    Recently, some of our team proudly took part in the London Legal Walk, joining thousands of others from across the legal and professional services community to support access to justice. It was a great opportunity to step outside the office and contribute to an important cause, and we’re proud to have played a small part in helping to raise vital funds for free legal advice charities. Thanks to the organisers for such a brilliant event. #LondonLegalWalk #AccessToJustice
