Join Helping Herts' February Challenge: 12 miles, 12 charities

Lace up your walking boots this February and take on Helping Herts' 12 miles for 12 charities challenge – walk 12 miles to support twelve remarkable children's charities in Herts.

This challenge is not your ordinary stroll; it's a meaningful 12-mile journey undertaken at your own pace, whenever it suits you throughout February.

Beyond the physical activity, this initiative is about making a difference and creating a positive impact in the lives of children who need our support.

Gordon Morrison, Founder of Helping Herts, said: "This challenge is a collective effort to create positive change in the lives of children in Hertfordshire. Each step contributes to a meaningful difference."

Walking is not only an excellent form of exercise, but it's also an opportunity to clear your mind, connect with nature, and support a good cause. By participating in the 12 Miles for 12 Charities challenge, you're not only improving your health but also bringing crucial support to children across Hertfordshire.

Getting involved is easy. Simply sign up at www.helpingherts.com, create your fundraising page, and start planning your walk. Whether you prefer a brisk morning walk, a leisurely weekend stroll, or even a run, every step counts. You can choose to go solo or make it a group activity with friends, family, or colleagues.

Share your walking journey on social media to inspire others and garner additional support. Every photo, every mile, and every donation contribute to making a significant impact.
