Our Fundraising
Back in April 2020 when the world was turned upside down due to the covid-19 pandemic, we realised that we needed to help motivate our members and support them to get active in whatever way they could.
We wanted to help motivate our members and give them something to focus on. So we came up with our fundraising initiative - Million Steps for MS and this is how it went:
1 Million Steps for MS
2 Million Steps for MS
3 Million Steps for MS
26 July 2020
Back in 2020, we raised over £20,000 for the MS Society UK. A team of 56 members took part by walking / running / wheeling as many steps / miles as they could in 24 hours. We ended up achieving the equivalent of 1,227,385 steps!

In 2021, we decided to carry on with our initiative so we doubled the challenge and we raised over £40,000 for the MS Trust! That year, 124 members took part at different locations across the UK and it was a huge success.

This year we're yet again raising money for the MS Society and so far we have 140 members due to take part. We've started fundraising and have already raised almost £3000. You can donate here.
We've also done lots more including a cake making competition, a pumpkin carving competition and a Christmas raffle. Next year, we've come up with a brand new initiative and we can't wait to share it with you all!
We're always looking for new ways the fundraise so if you do have any ideas or opportunities, please do get in touch.
