The King’s Trust Future Steps: We’re doing it!

TechMarketView has had a long association with The King’s Trust, which helps young people (aged 11-30) to build their confidence, get a job, or start their own business.

Every February, The Trust runs its Future Steps campaign, which challenges individuals to hit 10,000 steps each day of the month.

At TechMarketView, we split into two teams and fight it out to see who can hit the most steps and raise those most funds. We are viciously competitive.

This year, we’re going a ‘step’ further. Mid-month, we will ‘down tools’ and swap a day of working for a day of walking. The routes are plotted and the pub lunches planned. Expect to see us with bobble hats and dogs stomping through the countryside in Surrey, Oxfordshire, and Kent!

If you would like to get involved in some way, here are a few ideas depending on your mindset:

1. Generous but likes the indoors: Kick back and let us take the strain. DONATE HERE
2. Has done “Dry Jan” and now’s ready for “Walking Feb”: SET UP A TEAM AND GET FUND RAISING
3. Wants to swap working for walking for a day: SET UP A TEAM AND GET FUND RAISING

And don’t forget, you can run it, use your walking pad and stand-up desk…..or just take the old fashioned approach: get outside and put one foot in front of the other!
 

And if you have a broader interest in helping The King’s Trust through the Technology Leadership Group (of which I am Chair of the Business Development subcommittee), please drop me a line.
