Step a Million is simple…. you have 100 days to walk 1 million steps! As we enter the new year, this is the perfect way to get 2021 started in the right way and support Arthur Rank Hospice.

In order to reach your 1 million steps by 20 April, you need to accumulate an average of 10,000 steps every day. Encourage your friends, family and colleagues to get involved and keep each other motivated along the way. Go head to head to see who can reach 1 million steps first!

Walking 10,000 steps a day can result in you feeling more energetic and awake, look after your blood pressure and heart health, sleep better and reduce stress levels.

The entry fee for each individual is £12 and includes dedicated support from a member of our fundraising team throughout the 100 days.

How it works:

1. Sign up to the Step a Million Challenge through our website.
2. Enthuse will prompt you to create a fundraising page where you can ask your friends, family or colleagues to support you on your challenge.
3. Record your steps every day from 11^th January-20^th April by using our tracker you will receive or by your own means. You could track the steps using your phone, a fitness watch, or a pedometer.
4. Keep in touch with friends, family or colleague who are taking on the challenging to offer encouragement and see who reaches their million steps first.
5. Complete 1 Million Steps by 20^th April and be proud of an amazing accomplishment all whilst supporting the vital work of Arthur Rank Hospice.

Covid-19 Considerations

We know that government restrictions can often change from one week to the next so we have designed this challenge to ensure you can take part wherever you might find yourself. If you find yourself in a local lockdown, in quarantine or any other situation where you may find your outings limited, we challenge you to take on the steps in your house, garden or on one long walk a day.

Please get in touch with Emma Bray by emailing [email protected] or calling 01223 675888 if you would any further questions or would like to enter a large team as rates can be negotiated.
