Walk the Extra Mile

Diabetes Week’s Walk the Extra Mile (previously called Walk in the Park) are walks for everyone.

With a focus on community, family and fun, ‘Walk the Extra Mile’ events are your opportunity to raise funds for the Diabetes UK Careline.

Where does Walk the Extra Mile take place?

Diabetes Week Walk the Extra Mile events will take place all over the UK, with listings by region.

People who wish to take part in the Walk the Extra Mile events simply need to complete a fast online registration form, and a local race organiser will provide more information. 

Whether it’s a short stroll in aid of diabetes or a hill climb, people are also encouraged to launch their own Walk the Extra Mile events.

They don’t have to be big or even public events. Walks for diabetes can take place in school, during work, or even as part of your daily life.

Organising your own walk?

People who are interested in organising their own walk are encouraged to get in touch with Diabetes UK.

Walk the Extra Mile Events will take place in the Midlands, South West, Scotland, London, South East and in many other areas of the UK.
