During the month of October, we challenge you to complete a steps challenge to raise vital funds for Devon’s mental health and wellbeing charity, Step One. These funds are a lifeline for many people in our community. Join us and help make a real difference!

– 300,000 steps (142 miles)
Approx. 9,500 steps a day
– 500,000 steps (236 miles)
Approx. 16,000 steps a day
Challenge your friends, family and colleagues to see who can take on the most steps! There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to reaching your step goal. It’s your unique journey and every move you make counts towards better mental wellbeing. Walk, run, or wheel – it all adds up!
More people than ever in our local community are facing challenges with their mental health. Often it can be our friends, family, and neighbours. Your £10 entry fee and fundraising efforts helps to pay forward to others across Devon who need vital mental health support, ensuring every step helps others take their first step, too.
“I could feel myself relapsing, going towards a breakdown again and I needed to get out and find something to do so I started walking. My mum suggested the men’s wellbeing walk and I enjoy coming here each week and seeing the blokes. It’s nice to be around people who understand.”
This World Mental Health Day (10th October 2024), the theme is clear: ‘It’s time to Prioritise Mental Health in the Workplace.’
During the month of October, Step One invites your business to step up for mental health with your own personalised challenge. Whether it’s a 5K walk during lunch break on World Mental Health Day, or a team-wide steps challenge throughout October, you can make a meaningful impact for mental health in Devon. Boost team morale, promote physical activity, and make a difference in your community.
Complete the form below and our Fundraising Team will be in touch to discuss participation options for you and your team.
Thank you to our partner John Lewis Exeter for their support of the Every Step Counts challenge. Their commitment to mental health awareness helps us raise more funds for critical services in our community.
