Legal workers will unite in a 10km walk to raise funds for legal aid charities.

The Southampton Legal Walk will start at the city's crown court on September 18.

A procession of solicitors, barristers, law school representatives and court staff will support frontline free legal advice charities in the region by raising money for the London Legal Support Trust (LLST).

Having started in 2018, the Southampton Legal Walk has raised more than £44,500.

This year, the walkers aim to beat the £7,000 raised last year.

Bob Nightingale MBE, head of fundraising and founder of London Legal Support Trust, said: "We have faced many challenging years and unfortunately the struggle continues, therefore it is more crucial than ever to unite and raise funds for local advice agencies.

"The Southampton Legal Walk is a wonderful opportunity to bring the community together in support of access to justice while also enjoying ourselves.

"LLST remains dedicated to assisting these local advice agencies through events like this."
