Here's how
You don't need to do much to make a big difference
Your activity
Go for your walk — or any activity you love. Run, wheel, dance, skip, climb, jog. Whatever gets you moving counts. If a dog is involved, you've hit the jackpot — their steps count double.
Count your steps
Count your steps or wheel revolutions as you go. Don't worry about being exact — every step in the right direction is a good one.
Let us know how you did
Send your total to us via the link we'll provide. You can also send us your steps via email or on social media.
Add photos and tell us your story
Share a photo and tell us about your walk — especially if your steps are dedicated to a particular carer and the person they support. Your story matters.
Your steps are added to our total
Every step you take goes towards our national target. We're going for 10 million. Help us get there.
Last year we raised

Why it matters
"The level of care that unpaid carers provide has been calculated as the equivalent of £184 billion - the cost of a second NHS. If carers stopped caring tomorrow the whole health and social care system would collapse."
Every penny of your funding will help us pay for scenic, social, wonderful walks, activities & adventure for carers and the people they care for.
Including visits to castles, forests, woodlands, coastlines, country parks, cathedrals, stately home and gardens, leisure centres, bowling clubs, dancing sessions, singing groups, gardening clubs, tai chi classes, weight training workouts and more.Healthy sociable lunches.Free transport for those who would not otherwise be able to take part.
