Will you Step UP for survivors this February?

This February, Steps Together is proud to announce our sponsorship with the Katie Piper Foundation for their Step UP challenge. We are delighted to be a sponsor of this event and invite you to join us in making a difference in the lives of burn and traumatic scarring survivors.

The Step UP challenge is a unique fundraising event that encourages individuals to set a goal and reach it, while also raising funds for a cause close to our hearts – the Katie Piper Foundation. The foundation, established by model, author, and TV presenter Katie Piper, is dedicated to helping survivors of burns and traumatic scarring. They provide vital physical and psychological rehabilitation to survivors across the UK, giving them the tools they need to rebuild their lives and regain their confidence.

“Steps Together are pleased and honoured to be the lead sponsor of the Katie Piper Foundation’s new Step UP fundraising Challenge. By working together, we can make a significant difference to the wellbeing and rehabilitation of survivors of burns and scars being supported by the Charity, and we are proud to support the fantastic work that is delivered by the Katie Piper Foundation’s dedicated teams across the UK. We encourage everyone to get involved in the Step UP challenge, which will not only help the Charity to continue to make a positive impact on the lives of those in need, but also support the health and wellbeing of participants through increased physical exercise.

Our partnership with the Katie Piper Foundation began in July 2023, when we welcomed their North West rehabilitation team to join us in our beautiful treatment setting at Rainford Hall in St Helens. We were immediately drawn to the Charities commitment, and Katie Piper’s personal dedication and passion to provide holistic and transformational rehabilitation for the survivors of burns and scars. We knew that we could all make a meaningful difference by working together! ” Darren Rolfe – CEO, Steps Together

So how can you get involved? It’s simple – Step UP! Set yourself a target, whether it be 500 steps a day, 300,000 steps in a month, or walking a certain distance, and get your friends and family to sponsor you. By participating in the Step UP challenge, you will not only be improving your own physical and mental well-being but also making a positive impact on the lives of others.

Registration for the Step UP challenge is only £5.00, and as a thank you, you will receive a free Katie Piper Foundation branded beanie hat. Not only that, but you will also have the opportunity to challenge yourself and make a difference in the world. And the best part? You can do it from the comfort of your own home, at your own pace, and in your own way. The possibilities are endless – you can walk, run, dance, or even climb stairs to reach your goal. The important thing is that you Step UP and make a difference.

But that’s not all – by raising a minimum of £50.00, you will be funding a therapy session for a survivor. This may seem like a small amount, but it can make a big difference in someone’s life. The Katie Piper Foundation provides a range of therapies, including scar management, laser treatment, and counselling, to help survivors heal both physically and emotionally. With your help, they can continue to provide these essential services to those in need.

As a sponsor of the Step UP challenge, Steps Together is committed to supporting the Katie Piper Foundation in their mission to help survivors of burns and traumatic scarring. We believe that every step counts and together we can make a significant impact on the lives of these survivors. So, this February, let’s Step UP and show our support for this worthy cause.

The Step UP challenge is more than just a fundraising event; it is an opportunity to make a positive difference in the lives of others. So, set your goal, register for the challenge, and Step UP this February. Join us in supporting the Katie Piper Foundation and bringing hope, healing, and confidence to survivors of burns and traumatic scarring. Together, we can make a difference, one step at a time.
