Today, someone living in a more affluent area of Leeds will live at least 10 years longer than someone living in a deprived area of the city.
In many cases, these communities live just metres away & we don’t think that being born in a certain area should have any effect on their life chances in such a significant way.
The 10-in-10 is a 10 mile walk across Leeds to represent this shocking difference in life expectancy. Starting at Harewood House, we'll be making our way off-road through rolling countryside, ending at Bruntwood's city centre location Platform, where we can look back at the view of our beautiful city.
There’s no fundraising target as the tiniest amount of money will make a difference;
- £10 would provide enough ingredients for two sessions of Men's Pie Club, for local men facing social isolation.
-£25 would provide an hour's worth of healthy holiday activities for families facing disadvantage during the summer holidays.
- £50 would provide the resources needed for one the resources needed for one exercise group for people at risk of ill health.
