Although the Legal Walks are postponed until the autumn; this will not stop us from supporting #accesstojustice this spring!
The Liverpool Law Society would like to invite you to join us for the Virtual Great Legal Quiz taking place on Wednesday 10th June at 7pm
Please join us online as we put our general knowledge to the test and bring the North West community together in supporting the Community Justice Fund (no Legal Knowledge required) The Virtual Great Legal Quiz is a fantastic way to have some fun and get competitive with your team or as an individual, whilst also supporting vital free front line legal advice services.
Questions are like a pub quiz – not legal – it’s The Great Legal Quiz because…..
All proceeds will be donated to the Community Justice Fund which is now live and application process is now open.
As a result of Covid-19, many specialist advice agencies across the United Kingdom will close over the next 6 months with risk of permanent closure unless they receive immediate financial extra support. The Community Justice Fund was created in partnership with leading social justice organisations, who stressed the need for urgent, decisive action and maximum flexibility in how funding can be used.
Funders include the Access to Justice Foundation, Therium Access, Legal Education Foundation, Paul Hamlyn Foundation, AB Charitable Trust and Indigo Trust plus contributions from Law Society, Linklaters, Allen and Overy and London Legal Support Trust. The Community Justice Fund will be hosted by the Access to Justice Foundation and opens with over £5 million, including contributions from Ministry of Justice.
Any donation you make to the Community Justice Fund will enable more advice services to continue to help the people most in need.
Taking part is simple – register as a team or as an individual using the registration form. From there, we shall send you a link to make a ‘pay what you can’ donation via Virgin Money Giving (suggested donation £5-10.00pp). Once registered, you shall receive virtual joining instructions on the day of the quiz.
Help us share the quiz on social media using the hashtags #GreatLegalQuiz and #CommunityJusticeFund
Best of luck!
