There are endless ways to add some extra steps into your day or week. Did you know you could lose about one pound per week simply by completing an extra 10,000 steps each day.

To celebrate your fitness success and with Covid restrictions permitting we will do an END of challenge ½ marathon walk (13 miles) on Sunday 23rd May from Southbourne to Sandbanks Beach and back for those who want to take part or join us on route. This will start at 9am from Bistro on the Beach, Southbourne.

Why your help is important!

The Stable Family Home Trust support people with learning disabilities in Dorset & Hampshire. People with a learning disability already face extreme levels of social isolation and loneliness and have struggled throughout lockdown. The temporary closure of their day services, loss of routine, difficulties staying in touch with family and friends and keeping active has been difficult for them which has had an impact on their mental health and well-being. Since Covid-19 the whole charity operation has had to radically change in order to survive and the care staff and fundraising team have been working incredibly hard to keep services going. They still need your help to raise funds for vital costs for essential services when they re-open and by joining their challenge you can help make a difference.
