Not only did yesterday’s London Legal Walk raise over £500,000 for legal advice charities, but it also produced a host of delightful visual moments.
And so it began.

Premier League footballer-style legal walk T-shirts confuse tourists.

Carnival-like scenes in legal London as returning walkers share tales of pedestrian crossing near-misses.
Such was the jovial mood that the Lord Chief Justice was even posing for selfies.
Not to be outdone, the Attorney General clambered onto a table in the Chancery Lane Wetherspoons.

Well done to the walk’s organisers, the London Legal Support Trust, for putting on a great event.
