100 MILES. IN MAY. YOUR WAY.

FUNDRAISING FOR AZALEA AS YOU GO!

Azalea supports and cares for over 140 women each year, helping each one take steps towards walking free from being caught up in sex trafficking.

Women like Nadia. Her every movement is controlled by a perpetrator and she doesn't get to choose when she comes to Azalea. She is often desperately hungry, exhausted, suffering from unimaginable trauma and mental health challenges. Nadia who walks for over an hour to get to Azalea, but she does it knowing that she will be warmly welcomed when she arrives, given a hot meal and for a short time be in a place where she feels safe and significant.

Nadia's walk is a challenge.

What's yours?

You might want to do it solo, just you in the wide-open spaces, taking time out to run, walk or cycle, with a target of 25 miles a week, or a few miles a day. And once swimming pools open you could put in some lengths to clock up your mileage. You might even choose to vary your activity and walk just some of your miles, covering the others by running, cycling a few and the finishing them off in the pool.

But you could also sign up as a group, after all, 100 miles is quite a distance to cover on your own. As lockdown restrictions ease you could continue the walking you've been doing alone this last year, but in a group of six, covering 100 miles each but together, or sharing the mileage between you and having a great time with people you've missed spending time with. Maybe its your book group or office team, family or home group, neighbours or friends.

Whatever you decide, its 100 MILES. IN MAY. YOUR WAY.
