This May, our UKI Marketing Team is getting out from behind our laptops, lacing up and heading outside to take part in the Big Team Walk!

Together we are walking virtually from Birmingham to Glasgow—an epic 300-mile journey between the last and future hosts of the iconic Commonwealth Games.

Every day, athletes across the country are waking up at 5am to train hard in preparation for the 2026 Commonwealth Games. By joining the Big Team Walk, we are supporting these athletes on their path to success, whilst raising vital funds for SportsAid to help the next generation of athletes continue to train and compete at their best despite financial barriers.

For nearly 50 years, SportsAid has played a crucial role in the journeys of aspiring athletes, providing them with financial assistance, recognition and practical support at a crucial stage. Donations really make a difference and SportsAid Alumni include Dame Jessica Ennis-Hill, Ellie Simmonds OBE, and Sir Mo Farah. At the Paris 2024 Games, 82% of Team GB and Paralympics GB medallists were once supported by SportsAid.

We'd appreciate any support that you can provide to this fantastic charity.
