The One Million Step Challenge 2025

When you move, we move

This summer, take on our One Million Step Challenge and help us transform the lives of everyone living with diabetes. Because when you move, we move too.

Every step you take and every pound you raise helps us fund research for new treatments, campaign for better care, and provide vital support through our helpline.

So, join the thousands already stepping up to the challenge and together, let's change the future of diabetes.
