Chains for Change · 10 July 2015

Footsteps Foundation improves the quality of life for children and young adults with neuro-motor disorders. We provide them with access to a unique programme of intensive physiotherapy at the Footsteps Centre, enabling them to reach their full potential whilst gaining confidence and independence.

Story

The Footsteps mission is to “Help children with the determination and the dream to move like their friends, but who lack the physical ability to do so.” Based in Wallingford, Oxfordshire, they offer an innovative, intense form of physiotherapy that children with disabilities can’t access anywhere else in the UK.

Every penny raised for them goes to supporting families that ordinarily wouldn’t be able to afford for their kids to go through the treatment. Which is why we’ve put together Chains for Change: a mission to cycle 175 miles in a day to raise money. From the £50 it costs to buy one footstep – an hour of physiotherapy – to the £9,000 it takes to fund a child for a year.

Pedal-off is on 10 July 2015. And there’ll be a host of other activities in the run up, when we’ll be inviting everyone at TMP to take on their own 175 challenge. And we’ll be welcoming the cyclists back with a big party.
