Walk for Support at school, college or university

Bringing people together through fundraising

Walk for Support works really well in schools, colleges and universities because it’s flexible, simple and easy to adapt. It’s about participation, not performance, and it can fit around your day without disrupting learning.

How schools, colleges and universities can get involved

You can shape Walk for Support to suit your students and setting.

• Linking walking to wellbeing or enrichment activities

Walking can take place on site, locally or as part of everyday movement.
