The Breakaway - October 2024

We want to wish our clients and connections a happy Halloween from our team at Barton Legal.? ?

Whether you’re spending it trick-or-treating with your little ones or cosied up with a horror movie, tucking into some chocolate and sweets, we hope you have a great one!?

It's time again to start planning and prepping for our annual charity bike ride, the Dales 50.

Our Dales 50 event has been a tremendous success over the past three years, raising over ￡6,500. This is a number that we are incredibly proud of here at Barton Legal, and it's all thanks to your support.??

As always, our charity bike ride offers a picturesque route through the stunning Yorkshire Dales, starting and finishing in Otley, with a mid-ride stop in Harrogate for coffee and snacks.??

We will get together on Friday, 16 May 2025 and invite you to join us for a day of riding for a brilliant cause - Bradford District and Craven Mind.
