Walk in our shoes 2026

Join us for a summer step challenge and fundraise to support local people living with incurable illness. Every day, our nurses walk around 10,000 steps while delivering care to patients – and this summer, you can step in their shoes by taking on our sponsored walking challenge. All you need to do is choose a month that suits you (June, July, August or September) and get stepping while fundraising for us. You can aim for 10,000 steps a day like our nurses and care teams – or set your own target that works for you. Why not make it a team challenge with friends, family or colleagues? Registration is £5 and includes a t-shirt. Add a matching doggy bandana for £3 if your four-legged friend is joining you! Everyone who completes the challenge will receive a certificate of thanks, and those raising over £50 will receive a fabulous new medal – raise £150+ and you’ll receive an extra special gift! All our care is free, but it’s not without cost. We must raise £2 for every £3 we spend, and every step taken and pound raised helps. It’s because you care that we can.
