On 13 June 2015 almost exactly 800 years after the signing of Magna Carta, 161 participants including law alumni, local judges, leading QCs, barristers, law firms, staff, students and friends of the University, took part in the first Canterbury Legal Walk in aid of the Kent Law Campaign.
The Walk is one of a series of 10km sponsored walks held throughout England and Wales and takes place annually after the London Legal Walk which celebrated its 11th Anniversary this year. The Canterbury Legal Walk, a 10km walk around the city of Canterbury and Kent’s Canterbury campus, was organised by the University to raise funds to help build the new Kent Law Clinic, our special thanks go to The London Legal Support Trust, The Law Society and The Access to Justice Foundation for helping us make this event possible.
Sponsorship is still being received but we estimate that the walk will have raised over £8K for the Kent Law Campaign.
