The Let’s Move a Million Miles for Charity campaign is run by local people
and led by Channel Rotary. In 2023 our supporters pledged over 37,000 miles of activity, raising over £10,000 for our charities. In 2024 we'd love you to help
us reach our target of a million miles,
find out how...
Fitness Challenge
Help us reach One Million Miles
on foot - with a friend - on 2 wheels - at the pool - as a team - in the gym - your way!
The possibilities are endless...
We've set a very ambitious goal - our community moving one million miles of activity to raise funds for local charities. You could take part by walking, running, cycling or swimming! You can do this outdoors or in the gym, move around in the garden, on the golf course, on the football pitch - however you feel you can get involved. Everyone can contribute to this Million Miles target.
Make it different! Fancy a crazy challenge? If you want to cartwheel round the garden? no problem; pogo stick to school? absolutely. Climb the stairs a hundred times? Excellent!
​
Limited Mobility? How many steps do you do when mowing the lawn? How many miles can you travel by bus in a day? Take in as many local towns and villages as you can and count up the miles travelled - it all counts!

Why Take Part?
Get fit & raise funds for local charities. It's that simple.
Perhaps you have a personal fitness goal, or want to give yourself a reason to get out and about, or you want to get out and meet some new people? Or maybe you'd like to do some good in the community while you take your morning run, or just get outdoors a bit more this year.
​
This challenge is for everyone. We want to get the community moving;
and if we can help some great local causes on the way then so much the better.
