Could you go the extra mile for children and families who need you?
This September, take on our Step-tember challenge and complete 90 miles in 30 days as part of Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospice’s “From That Moment” campaign.
From the moment a family’s world changes, Noah’s Ark is there, providing care, therapy and support to children with life-threatening or life-shortening conditions and their families.
This autumn, we’re asking our community to come together to help us continue being there, from that moment and every moment after. Step-tember is your chance to make a difference, one mile at a time. Walk, run, cycle, wheel, swim or mix it up! Complete 90 miles throughout September in whatever way works for you. That’s around three miles, or 7,000 steps, a day. You could walk to work, run around your local park, cycle a longer route at the weekend, swim a few lengths, or get your friends, family and colleagues involved and take on the challenge together. And this year, your fundraising can go even further - as part of the From That Moment campaign, donations will be doubled thanks to our match funding, helping your support make twice the difference.*
Be inspired by last year’s Step-tember challengers
Our Step-tember 2025 participants showed just how much you can achieve when you have a reason to keep moving. Itohan took on the 90-mile September challenge by cycling from London to Brighton. For her, every mile had a purpose: “I wanted to help ensure more families could benefit from their incredible support.”
Leah took on an extraordinary personal challenge. After 12 years using a wheelchair because of Hip Dysplasia, Leah learnt to walk again following an operation in 2024. She then walked more than 90 miles for Noah’s Ark. “A year ago, I couldn’t even stand, let alone walk!” Leah says. “To have walked over 90 miles, has been an amazing achievement.”
