About the Garden Party

Date: Wednesday 15th June 2011
Time: 6.00pm – 8.00pm
Venue: Lincoln’s Inn North Lawn, London, WC2A 3TL

The Legal Charities Garden Party was instituted by the Holborn Law Society (now the City of Westminster and Holborn Law Society) to fundraise for a number of legal charities to whom all proceeds go. These include SBA The Solicitors’ Charity; Barristers’ Benevolent Association; Institute of Barristers’ Clerks Benevolent Fund; United Law Clerks’ Society; Institute of Legal Executives Benevolent Fund Law Care.

Since its inception in 1968 the Garden Party has been a popular meeting place for judges, solicitors, barristers, barristers’ clerks and legal executives. Every year the Legal Charities Garden Party has attracted around 1,500 guests who enjoy an evening networking in the beautiful surroundings of Lincoln’s Inn catching up with old friends and perhaps meeting new ones.

The Garden Party is organised by volunteers comprised of representatives from the six benefiting charities and the City of Westminster and Holborn Law Society and is chaired by James Furber, senior partner at Farrer & Co.
