Distribution Principles for the North West Legal Support Trust fundraising events
Legal advice charities
If you are a legal advice charity taking part in one of our fundraising events, 100% of the funds that you raise may be kept by your charity.
Online funds
All money donated through your online fundraising page will automatically be paid to the Access to Justice Foundation (ATJF). The ATJF will then pass these funds to your charity without deduction.
Offline funds
Any funds raised offline (i.e. cash donations) do not need to be sent to the NWLST, though we do ask that you inform us of the total amount raised in offline donations.
