Taylor Emmet, a distinguished law firm in the Sheffield region, is orchestrating a marathon walking event to bolster funds for four selected charity partners. This event, titled the ‘Taylor Emmet Walking Office Marathon’, is scheduled to take place on Saturday, 20 July.
The walk will cover a striking distance of 48 kilometres, linking all five of Taylor Emmet’s office locations. It will commence in Rotherham and culminate at the Peak District branch located in Bakewell. Participants in the event have the liberty to decide their level of involvement, choosing to walk any distance from 5km up to the complete 48km.
The firm has chosen to support a quartet of charities—Support Dogs, Birth Trauma Association, The Children’s Hospital, and Weston Park Cancer Charity—through an internal vote. Such initiatives align with Taylor Emmet’s overarching mission to make a tangible difference in the community.
Over the years, Taylor Emmet has cultivated a rich tradition of philanthropy, hosting various fundraising events that unite staff and the local community. These have included a charity skydive, ‘Dog and Doughnut Days’, and a popular family fun day.
Moreover, Taylor Emmet supports its employees in community giving by offering a ‘Volunteer Day’ programme. This initiative allows employees a fully paid day to volunteer for a charity of their choice, further reinforcing the firm’s commitment to social responsibility.
