Walk, run or dance your 10,000 steps starting any day in September. You can take on the challenge individually, or do it as a team.
Your steps can make a difference! Whether you take on the challenge using your stairs at work, dance your steps away in your living room or simply walk in the countryside! Get stepping.
Remember, 10,000 steps feels too much, you can set your own goal!

Why take part?
As well as helping those with CF, there are many health benefits to walking including boosting your energy and overall fitness, improving heart and blood health as well as reducing stress levels and sleeping better.
With the money we raise, we can continue providing patients with vital support through these difficult times and supply AB Face masks to as many CF Patients as possible! We can keep providing emergency hardship, exercise and emotional welfare and grants and giving those with CF the opportunity to live a normal life.
IMPORTANT: Please remember social distancing if you’re taking part as a team
