The Boddy Matthews team together with their four legged friends had great fun on the annual Surrey Legal Walk in aid of charity! Luckily the sun was shining for the 10k walk across the Surrey countryside which was an invigorating start to the week. Boddy Matthews Solicitors raised sponsorship for the Surrey Law Centre which provides pro bono advice in Surrey.
The Boddy Matthews team with dogs supported the YMCA Charity Santa Run with their traditional festive outfits and good cheer despite the sleet and rain! A good time was had by all for a worthwhile cause. Happy Christmas from the team.
Helen Boddy and Harriet Hutchinson participated in Run Reigate on 17 September 2017 for the RGS Foundation in aid of the Changing Lives Campaign.
Helen and Harriet joined a team of 18 runners taking part in this popular community event (with varying degrees of training completed!) Double Olympic Champion Dame Kelly Holmes was there to spur them on towards the finish line.
The Boddy Matthews team plus dogs enjoyed the fund raising 5 mile legal walk across the North Downs with other Surrey lawyers. Surrey law centres manned pro bono by legal volunteers like us at Boddy Matthews will benefit from the funds raised.
The Surrey Law Centre is a registered Charity which helps disadvantaged and vulnerable people gain access to justice.
In association with the Surrey Law Centre we provide free legal advice to disadvantaged and vulnerable people to help them gain access to justice. We believe that access to justice should be equally available to everyone, regardless of their financial circumstances.
As part of this scheme we conduct face to face clinic appointments to provide advice that will assist individuals in the local community to work out what their legal problem is; what action they need to take to deal with it and practical steps they can take to resolve matters.
Boddy Matthews lawyers and family sported a team of Santa Clauses lead by partner solicitor Kate Mathews and trainee solicitor Harriet Hutchinson for the 2015 Santa Run in aid of the charitable works at St Catherine’s Hospice which cares for and supports terminally ill patients. Great fun was had by all the Santas in supporting this cause.
This September, a team from our important client Caremark Limited, is cycling from John O’ Groats to Land’s End in 10 days. The team is made up of franchisees and staff from Caremark who have joined together with a target of raising £100,000 for Alzheimer’s Society.
Caremark is a leading UK and international home care provider offering domiciliary care, personal support, home help and companionship services with over 75 offices throughout the UK.
Boddy Matthews are proud sponsors of the Caremark team and wish them every success with the challenge of around 1,000 miles in 10 days.
A very big WELL DONE to Harriet our trainee solicitor and Charlotte for their tremendous effort in running the London Marathon in aid of Children with Cancer Charity. What a success story!!
Our Trainee Solicitor Harriet Hutchinson will be running the London Marathon in April 2015 for Children with Cancer UK. This fantastic charity was chosen as Harriet’s sister was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia in 2006. She battled through to be given the “All Clear” but in doing so developed a bone condition called Avascular Necrosis. She continues to have treatment for this.
Children with Cancer fund research, support families and campaign to raise awareness of childhood cancer. The Charity is also finding new ways to treat cancer which have less toxic, unpleasant and uncertain side effects. It has provided brilliant support for Harriet’s sister and her family throughout.
The Marathon course is a gruelling 26 miles 385 yards long, passing through the streets of London from Blackheath to the famous finish line at The Mall.
The Boddy Matthews team (pictured) led by Kate and Harriet joined hundreds of Santas for the St Catherine’s Cancer Hospice Charity run. Despite wet and muddy conditions the team completed their goals with medals all round.
