Nottingham Legal Community Walk 2026

On Tuesday, 16 June, the legal community of Nottinghamshire came together in a powerful show of support for access to justice, raising vital funds for the Nottingham Law Centre.

The walk began at the Magistrates’ Court, led by an esteemed group including HHJ Coe KC, HHJ Coupland, President Drew Dennis, Past President & Chief Crown Prosecutor Jannine McKinney, and Vice President Aldijana Hoad. They were joined by approximately 200 enthusiastic walkers from member firms, alongside dedicated stewards from NTU Law School.

We were delighted to be joined by teams from 1 Step Immigration, Actons Solicitors, AmTrust International, Ashton Bond Gigg, Austin Moore & Partners LLP, Barratts Solicitors, Browne Jacobson, Buckles Law, Eversheds Sutherland, Irwin Mitchell, Knights PLC, Landsmiths Solicitors, MJC Law, Nottingham Hospital Trust, Nottingham Law Centre, Nottingham City Council, NLS Legal, OTB Legal, Richard Nelson LLP, Ropewalk Chambers, Rothera Bray LLP, Sills & Betteridge, St. Mary’s Chambers, St. Ives Chambers, The Johnson Partnership, Thompsons Solicitors, the University of Law, and the University of Nottingham School of Law.

We are also incredibly grateful to Browne Jacobson and AmTrust International for generously sponsoring the post-walk drinks at Canalhouse, whose warm hospitality made the evening even more memorable.

Thank you also to Jay Glenn Show Photography for capturing the teams smiles and all the wagging dog tails at the start point!
