On Sunday 19th October, a determined team of Stage It! Academy staff, tweens, and seniors will be swapping the stage for walking boots as we take on a 25km challenge from Birmingham to Tamworth, to raise money for BBC Children in Need!

We’re used to singing, dancing, and performing under bright lights — but this time, we’ll be putting that same energy and teamwork into every single step. Together, we’re walking to support children and young people across the UK who need a helping hand.

Every pound raised will help fund life-changing projects — from supporting children living in poverty, to providing safe spaces, mental health support, and opportunities to thrive.

We know 25km will be tough (expect a few dramatic moments and maybe even some mid-walk singalongs!), but with your encouragement, we’ll keep going right to the end.

💛 Please donate what you can and help us make a difference — one step, one song, and one smile at a time!
