Fenners Chambers Sponsors Cambridge Legal Walk

Fenners Chambers were proud sponsors of this year’s Cambridge Legal Walk, which took place on the 6th of June in Cambridge.

Legal Walks are held by the Access to Justice Foundation (ATJF) to raise money to fund free legal advice in the form of grants to advise charities working in communities that need it most. With over a decade of Legal Walks behind them, the ATJF has raised over half a million pounds to promote access to justice.
