More than 8,000 barristers, solicitors, judges, parliamentarians and others working in the legal profession raised over half a million pounds pounding the streets in the annual 10k London Legal Walk. Leading legal luminaries who donned their walking boots included the Lord Chief Justice; the Master of the Rolls; the Supreme Court President; the two Law Officers and the Director of Public Prosecutions. Bar Chairman, Alistair MacDonald QC and representatives from the Law Society and CILEx also took part. Funds raised by the walk, which is organised by the London Legal Support Trust, support free legal charities in and around the capital.
