To no one will we sell, to no one deny or delay right or justice
At the heart of Magna Carta was the concept that there should be proper access to justice. With the recent changes in the provision of legal aid, cuts in government spending and the increasing complexity of citizens’ interaction with the law, the ability to obtain access to justice remains as relevant today as it was when the barons gathered at Runnymede.
In celebration of the 800th anniversary of the sealing of the Magna Carta in 1215 The Access to Justice Foundation and Legal Support Trusts across the country will be working with the Commemoration Committee to run a range of participatory events in the Magna Carta Towns in addition to its annual programme of fundraising events, all of which will have a Magna Carta focus. Teams and individuals can walk, run, cycle and bake to raise money to support access to justice; sponsored walks will take in the local sights and places of interest and the events will highlight some of the most important legal clauses in the Magna Carta.
The Access to Justice Foundation and Legal Support Trusts aim to improve access to justice for the most vulnerable in society by raising funds and distributing them to organisations that support those who need legal help but cannot afford it. For those who cannot afford private services the free legal advice sector provides a vital means of ensuring that the great tradition of the Magna Carta and the continued provision of proper access to justice is maintained.
We proud to support that sector and play our own role in maintaining the great tradition of the Magna Carta.
