On Friday, 26 and Saturday, 27 May, I will walk from Penzance to Falmouth to raise money for the Dracaena Centre, an innovative community hub in Falmouth where I am a Trustee. 

The funds raised will go towards sustaining and growing the Dracaena Centre legal advice project, particularly towards completing the funding for Cornwall’s first graduate solicitor apprentice in social welfare law.  The apprenticeship will be based at the Dracaena Centre and will be remotely overseen from London in a ground-breaking arrangement. 

The legal advice project has now been running for over five years and, in that time, has assisted over 900 clients free of charge covering family, debt, benefits, housing and other related social welfare issues.  It has done this through a small team in Falmouth and its remote back-up team at University House Legal Advice Centre, London.

We need to raise £15,000 to move to the next stage of the legal advice project.  

Thank you for your interest.

Guy Beringer
