Challenge yourself to achieve 10,000 steps a day

Be a part of this amazing health and wellbeing challenge over 100 days from the 1st September – 9th December 2021 whilst raising money for a healthcare area that is close to your heart in aid of Awyr Las, your North Wales NHS charity.

Achieve 500 miles over 100 days – that’s 1 Million steps in total!

Get your steps in by staying active. Every step you take, counts! Whether it’s running, walking your dog, going on days out with your family or just getting your day-to-day chores done – it’s totally up to you! By taking part in this epic challenge, you can choose to support any healthcare ward/service/department fund across North Wales through Awyr Las, your North Wales NHS charity. Through the 400 different funds within Awyr Las you can help make a real difference in your hospitals and in communities across North Wales.

Sign up today and look forward to treading your way to one million steps with us.

Alternatively, register your interest by emailing awyrlas@wales.nhs.uk and we'll keep you up to date.

Why should I get involved?

Why not use this superb challenge to help raise morale, lift team spirit, and help promote a healthy lifestyle and improved wellbeing? You can link up with team mates on the specially designed app to track your progress and create your own competition on team leader boards.

Bethan, Senior Sister at the North Wales Cardiac Centre took part earlier in the year and felt the benefits:

“The one million steps challenge is making me become more active, especially when I have been at my desk all day – I have also lost 3lbs in weight”

As well as Sam, a Cardiac Secretary:

“I am enjoying going out before work. Before the challenge, I wouldn’t normally do that and I am feeling fitter, less tired and can cope with my work day better”

The Awyr Las Support Team have secured free* digital places just for BCUHB staff. Sign up for the digital pack and tracking your steps will be a breeze - you'll be able to sync your smart phone with the app via Google Fit or Apple Health.


**Free places for BCUHB staff are on a first come first serve basis
