Bill Barton and Trish Barton recently attended the KidsOut Question of Sport Dinner. It was a fantastic evening of entertainment, networking and friendly competition, all in aid of helping disadvantaged and vulnerable children in the region.

On Wednesday 26th June, members of our team here at Barton Legal took part in the Leeds Legal Walk. Legal walks are sponsored walks which take place across the UK, organised by local committees, to raise money for access to justice. They are a great way for local legal communities to meet up, raise much needed funds, and enjoy the sights of your local area.
