Step Challenge

This September sees the launch of the Strathcarron Step Challenge: an interactive, virtual event which will see you push your daily step count, aiming for 450K steps across the month of September.

Follow in the footsteps of our Domestic Goddesses, Kim & Liz, who take 15K steps every day keeping Strathcarron Hospice spotless and help us make every moment count for our patients and their families.

There are 2 options to sign up to this event: Challenge yourself to reach 450K steps in September, or sign up in a team of 4 with your friends, family, colleagues or classmates and compete with other teams on our Step Challenge Leaderboard.

With your help, we can continue to provide specialist care and support to our patients. We'd love you to aim to raise £150 which could pay for one full block of rehab for one person, enabling them to return home, with confidence, following a stay in our in-patient unit.

Leaderboards LIVE!

A big thank you and well done to all the individuals and teams who have submitted their first step total for the Strathcarron Step Challenge, it looks like everyone had a very active Sunday!

Both our Individual and Team Leaderboards are now live on our website so you can see how you and your fellow participants are getting on!

Remember to track your steps this week and send us the total for the week on Sunday evening/Monday morning and see how you move closer to your goal.

In the meantime, here are some "Top Tips" for getting in extra steps:
