My Story

A team from Cardium Law will once again be pounding the streets of the capital as we take part in the London Legal Walk to raise funds for charity.

Thank you for supporting our team to raise funds for the London Legal Walk.

On Tuesday 9 June, we will be taking on the 10km (6.2 mile) walk, helping those in need to gain access to life-changing free legal advice.

We’re hoping for good weather but perhaps not quite so hot as last year

Our team is Marena, Chloe, Joe, Grace, David, Leila, Jeff, Shuting, Beth, Hannah, Andrew and Duncan.

We're walking with the Lady Chief Justice and thousands of lawyers as well as other professionals from the sector to raise funds for the London Legal Support Trust.

Last year's event raised more than £1 million, enabling thousands of people who would otherwise not be able to afford it to access justice. 

Many people across the UK cannot cover the cost of legal help and are at risk of going without justice when they need it most. One fifth of the UK population lives in poverty. That's 14 million people. 

The London Legal Support Trust raises funds to help maintain free legal advice charities in London and the South East. Your donation supports the agencies' direct advice services, who will help people like Fatima:

Fatima, a mum living in London was struggling to provide adequate care for her son who is living with physical health issues. When her claim for Disability Living Allowance was refused, she lost hope.

Fatima turned to one of the centres we support, which helped her appeal the refusal, and then provided legal representation to Fatima and her son at a tribunal. This vital help resulted in over £100 extra each week for Fatima, as well as £9,000 in backdated payments, and £5,000 more in tax credits every year.

Thanks to their help, Fatima now has the stability to better accommodate her child's disabilities and continue providing the care he needs without living in fear of losing her income.

Every step we take and every penny we raise brings us closer to a community where justice and support are accessible to all.

Please sponsor our walkers as generously as you can. 

Many thanks for your support.
