Total Pledged Goal: 155 MILES
of total goal
Thank you!
Dear Colleagues, Supporters, Sponsors,
I wanted to take a moment to extend my thanks to each of you who supported and sponsored me during my Mega Miles challenge last month. Thanks to your kindness and encouragement, I was able to complete a total of 276 miles (my target was 155 miles) despite having caught Covid or flu or something equally unpleasant and not being able to walk/run for a few days last month; together we raised £345 for a truly worthwhile cause, thank you!
Your generous donations and uplifting messages meant the world to me and kept me going on the tougher days when my legs ached, my feet had blisters on top of blisters, or I just faced a new, steeper hill! Whether you gave financially, cheered me on virtually, or simply believed in this effort, you played a big part in making this a success.
The funds raised will make a real difference, and I’m so proud of what we achieved - I couldn't have done it without you lovely folks! I've decided to keep up the running as I like being able to fit into my suit!
Best wishes & thanks again
David
Half way! Woo hoo!

On the B of Bang!
Hi, I’m David!
This May, I’ve lost my mind and decided to start running (and walking but that sounds a bit less impressive). I’m taking on the Mega Miles challenge to support the Charity for Civil Servants. The charity provides vital support for civil servants going through tough times — something I’ve seen make a real difference for people I know, which is why I’m eager to support it.
My goal is to raise at least £50 by running and walking a minimum of 10,000 steps a day, or 155 miles over the month (I couldn’t do the maths, so I’ll just assume Mega Miles calculated it correctly!). A huge thank you if you have already contributed, you know who you are!
Between my day job as a Decision Maker Team Leader, a single Dad of two, keeping up with my mischievous cat (Sharon), and attempting to keep everything alive at my allotment, I don’t have an abundance of time, but I hope to run each morning and walk each evening and do longer stretches at weekends. I’m determined to reach my target - even if it’s just achieved by running up my staircase and forgetting what I went up there for!
When I’m not sat at my desk pretending to know what I’m doing, you’ll usually find me out hiking in the countryside with my youngest daughter (the older one hates the countryside!) in the beautiful Peak District.
Any support you can give, whether big or small, will mean the world - not just to me, but to those who really rely on the incredible work this charity does. Thank you for helping me make every step count!
Best wishes, David
Please support me!
I’m taking on the Mega Miles Challenge in support of the Charity for Civil Servants.
The Charity for Civil Servants supports current, former and retired civil servants when they face tough times. From mental health struggles and financial assistance to relationship issues, getting through grief, and coping with disability, they’re here to help people stay strong, whatever life brings.
"When we didn't know who to turn to, the Charity was our life raft. We grabbed onto it when we felt like we didn't have anything to hold onto. It gave us answers to a question when we didn't have the answer ourselves... and it was so important to have that support at the time."
Graham
They’ve been there for civil servants for nearly 140 years, providing an umbrella of support when it’s needed most and so I'm fundraising to make sure they can be there for future generations too.
