Thank you for taking the time to visit the Miles for Macmillan Toiletries and Lifestyle page!

This year, as part of our charity challenge we are launching Miles for Macmillan - a company wide charity event to increase awareness for our unique partnership with Macmillan and raise money to improve the lives of people affected by cancer.

Boots and Macmillan have a huge shared ambition – to help everyone affected by cancer, wherever they are in the , find the expert information and support they need.

Our company wide aim is to clock up 290,000 miles – that’s one mile for each person diagnosed with cancer every year.

The Commercial Leadership Team have pledged to get from in to the Support Office in over the course of 8 days! Our Toiletries and Lifestyle leg is on Monday 6^th September and we will be travelling by human power from Milton Keynes to ! We have set a target to raise £100,000 between now and April and we plan to kick this off to a flying start with our Miles for Macmillan walk…..

The whole Toiletries and Lifestyle team will be taking part in some form or another, and between us we will be covering the whole 17.9mile distance. Green will be our chosen fancy dress colour, from army to Teletubbies, from elves to fairies….together we are going to be the Macmillan Green Army! Our methods of transport will be wide and varied, some of us will be walking, some cycling, some roller blading, some space hoppering!!! We will also be visiting Boots stores on route, the more people involved the better. Our category managers have pledged to dress up in Mascot costumes, so far we have Mr Energiser, the Kandoo frog and our very own Sunshine Sam joining us.

Of course, it is essential to remember that all this organised fun is ultimately to raise money for a very important cause. Every mile we are walking and every penny we raise goes towards helping Macmillan improve the lives of people with cancer.
