Footsteps To Inspire Global Run
Time & Location
About The Event
What Will You Run For?
This is your invitation to join in on Saturday 18 July 2020 to run or walk virtually for what matters to you when it comes to sexual violence: your story, someone else’s story, your wellbeing, your healing, holding space for a loved one, peacefully advocating for change, showing survivors they are not alone, supporting a cause, or maybe all of them.
Everyone is welcome! What you run for matters and every footstep you take gets us once step closer to ending sexual violence.
The 18th of July is a significant date because it marks 4 years since Footsteps To Inspire started, it’s the anniversary of my own rape and it’s Mandela Day (a day for individuals to make change in their local communities). What a day to come together and run for what matters.
Want to participate? Sign up here and you’ll receive more details and some special extras very soon.
