Hogan Lovells

The Wildlife Trusts are delighted to have been chosen as Hogan Lovells' official charity partner!

Hogan Lovells are a global law firm with two UK offices in London and Birmingham.  The partnership will see the firm supporting The Wildlife Trusts through pro bono legal advice, fundraising and skilled volunteering for four years (between 2020 and 2023), and will help connect employees to nature and the wellbeing benefits that this contact brings.

We will be working to inspire Hogan Lovells’ employees to experience the fantastic wildlife and habitats that can be found in our cities and to understand how a regular dose of nature can do wonders for our health and wellbeing, through organised team activity days, called ‘Wild Work Days’.  Alongside the physical engagement, Wildlife Trusts have developed a bespoke educational programme of virtual lunch and learns which their colleagues enjoy on a monthly basis. 

Hogan Lovells have been fundraising for The Wildlife Trusts to raise awareness of our cause and contribute to our goal to protect and connect 30% of our land and sea for nature by 2030. During our partnership, they have hosted a number of successful fundraisers. For example, 48 courageous employees took flight and abseiled an epic 34 metre descent down their London office building and Susan Bright, a Hogan Lovells employee, made an impressive journey to cycle 1000 km from Land’s End to John O’Groats in support of our cause. 

The most recent fundraising event was Legally Ballroom, their biggest charity event, held every 2 years. Dancing pairs of both colleagues and clients volunteer to get involved by learning how to ballroom dance, including Margaret Ruttle from London Wildlife Trust. The dancers then came together to compete in order to be crowned the firm's Legally Ballroom champions in the finale.
