“5K a day in May for PEDS!…
With a focus on Fundraising, Community Connection & Personal Wellbeing.
Movement that focuses on how we FEEL (our MIND health) and not how we look, whilst taking in the world around us, the birds, the sky & fresh air, whilst creating time to talk.
This fundraising event is a time to buddy up with friends, colleagues or family and raise some money for PEDS whilst sharing your stories of where you are and what you are doing.
Perhaps you are having a leisurely stroll around a park, cycling to work taking in nature or having a group jog and a chat after a long day in the office.
The “5k” a day can be completed in various ways, example by walking, wheeling or split into smaller chunks throughout the day if this works for you.
