Get your #10kForNurses inspiration!

Do 10k Your Way and aim to raise £100!

Have you always wanted to run 10k? Set yourself a #10kForNurses running challenge this October. You could join a local 10k run, or even split it into smaller chunks and run 10 x 1ks throughout the month. Or if you’re a running whizz, you could run 10 x 10ks! Run it your way.

Student Nurse Mollie achieved her first 10k in October 2018 and raised over £321!
“I took part in my first ever 10k, as a student nurse I observe nurses trying to do their job everyday which is hard enough. I couldn’t imagine what it’s like when you are also struggling with personal challenging circumstances.”

Organise a 10k walk with friends or colleagues, bring laughter and fun as you walk together to support nursing friends in hardship. There’s 10 steps to hosting a terrific #10kForNurses walk in the fundraising pack!

Sam and the team from Basildon Hospital got creative and did 10k steps together to raise a phenomenal £100:

“We decided at quite short notice to do something at our work place during work time, therefore 10k in distance wasn’t going to work.  We decided to do 10k steps instead around Orsett village which surrounds the hospital.  Despite the rain and the wind it was good fun and refreshing. We’re looking forward to ‘planning’ this years’ event earlier.”
