Step into Summer

Poster cover for Step into Summer walking challenge, calling people to walk 8,000 steps daily in May and raise £100 each. The image depicts a woman on the street, smiling and features the quote: "I add movement into my day: lunchtime pilates, a quick walk round the block when I'm at home or a fast walk around the park, when I'm in the office"

Rally your colleagues and take on the challenge of walking 8,000 steps a day this May. Raise £100 and help transform the lives of those living with arthritis. Many believe exercise makes arthritis worse but the truth is, movement is medicine. So let’s bust the myth and keep moving for a great cause!

Whether they’re small, brisk, or taken one at a time, your steps matter. By moving a little more each day, you’re not only helping your own joints stay active, but you’re also supporting others to do the same.

For just £100 raised, up to 10 people can access vital self-management tools — helping them take control of their arthritis, reduce pain, and regain independence and confidence.

At Arthritis Action, we empower people to take control of their condition and live fuller, more active lives, even in the face of daily pain. As some of our amazing fundraisers put it:

“The charity offers wonderful resources, with information about my condition and things I could do myself to help reduce the pain I was feeling. I only wish I had been aware of the charity earlier!”

“I’m really proud to fundraise for Arthritis Action knowing all the support they give to people to manage their arthritis and live as full a live as possible.”

About the process: Sign up today on our Just Giving Page here and you’ll receive a dedicated fundraising pack full of tools, tips, and motivation to help you along the way. We ask that you pledge to raise a minimum of £100.
