About Us
The London Legal Support Trust is an independent charity that raises funds for free legal services in London & the South East.
We support the provision of specialist legal advice through law centres, advice agencies and citizens advice bureaux by providing them with grant funding alongside other forms of support. Most of the funds that we raise come from fundraising events such as the London Legal Walk. We also receive generous donations from the legal profession and, increasingly, from other charitable trusts.
In addition to funding we offer our knowledge, contacts and experience of the sector to help agencies become more sustainable.
We are part of a network of seven Legal Support Trusts across England and in Wales
working with the Access to Justice Foundation to support pro bono and advice agencies,
ensuring funds can be distributed where needed most.
Registered Charity number: 1101906
