Bevan Brittan LLP was highly commended in the ‘Corporate Social Responsibility or Pro Bono Campaign of the Year’ category at the annual Legal Marketing Awards held on 24 May at the Park Lane Hotel, London.

Coming second to Linklaters, the national law firm beat Clifford Chance and Wragge & Co.

Bevan Brittan has been recognised for both its ‘Community Connections’ programme and for its involvement with its chosen charity, NCH. The firm helped to raise over £40,000 for the UK’s largest children's charity last year through a charity ball and other colleague activities including dress down days and quizzes.

Lead partner for CSR, Bethan Evans, said: “As a firm, we take CSR very seriously. It is extremely pleasing to be recognised alongside two law firms in the UK for our work in this area.”
