One Million Step Challenge 2026

1 July - 30 September 2026

Step for a happier, healthier you this summer. 

Take on the life-changing One Million Step Challenge to boost your mood and your fitness while helping raise vital funds for everyone living with diabetes. 

Take it on at your own page, in your own way. Walking, dancing, or squeezing extra steps into your daily routine - however you step, ever step counts. 

There are three distances to choose from: 

• 500,000 steps - a perfect start to your stepping journey, you'll take about 5,400 steps a day.
• 1,000,000 steps - the original challenge, you'll take about 10,800 steps a day.
• 1,700,000 steps - from Lands End to John O'Groats, you'll take about 18,400 steps a day. 

And we'll be with you every step of the way. Because when you move, we move too. The funds you raise help research new treatments, campaign for better care and provide essential support for mums, dads, sisters, brothers, sons, daughters, grandparents, and best friends juggling diabetes every single day.
