About

The Let’s Move a Million Miles for Charity Challenge initially ran for four-months - from 1 June – 30 September 2023. Run by local people and led by the Channel Rotary, aiming to raise funds through activity to support the work of Mind, The Rainbow Centre, Shepway Sports Trust and the Rotary Club’s Kindness Fund.  

​

The Million Miles campaign is now an ongoing fundraiser where you can choose to take part in any activity you choose and raise funds for our projects. In 20024 Channel Rotary Sleep Out, ran with the specific aim of funding a long term project to help the Folkestone districts homeles, and raised about £8,000

 

The Let’s Move a Million Miles for Charity vision is to accumulate up to one million miles of community activity with the goal of securing £1 of sponsorship per mile of activity undertaken.

​

We want everyone in our community, whatever their age, to challenge themselves to raise funds through activity of any kind, from running a marathon to climbing stairs; from rowing the equivalent of the channel to walking to school.

​

We hope this will encourage anyone to get fit and healthy by accumulating miles, and raise much-needed funds for charity. Together, let’s get active, have fun and Move a Million Miles!
