We are proud to be supporting Samaritans as our chosen charity of the year for 2025.
The work they do – being there for anyone who is struggling to cope with their mental health – is vital, which is why we’re committed to helping raise both funds and awareness for this incredible cause.
Throughout the year, our team will be taking part in a series of fundraising activities, with one of the highlights being the Samaritans Dawn Walk.
Walking together for World Mental Health Day
The Dawn Walk is a special challenge to walk 5K at sunrise between Friday 10 and Sunday 12 October 2025, in celebration of World Mental Health Day and in solidarity with those facing difficult times.
Participants can choose a route that’s meaningful to them, whether it’s a favourite trail or a familiar daily path and take part either solo or as part of a team.
Already, more than 717 walkers have pledged to take part, with almost 1,000 donations made across the UK.
By joining in, we hope to add to these numbers and contribute towards the life-changing work Samaritans carry out every single day.
Why we’re taking part
The Dawn Walk is more than a fundraiser. It’s an opportunity to reflect, connect and show support for those who need it most.
Every step we take helps Samaritans answer more calls, train more volunteers and ensure that no one must face life’s challenges alone.
We look forward to sharing updates from our walk and other fundraising events throughout the year, and we’d love for you to support us along the way.
