🚶‍➡️🚶‍➡️🚶‍➡️🚶‍➡️ Sustrans Big Walk & Wheel 🚲🚲🚲🚲

24th March - 4th April 2025

The Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel is the UK’s biggest walking, wheeling, scooting and cycling to school challenge.

  • Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel inspires pupils to make active journeys to school, improve air quality in their neighbourhood and discover how these changes benefit their world.
  • Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel is open to all primary and secondary schools in the UK, including SEN/ASN/ALN schools. It is free to take part and there are daily prizes to be won.
  • On each day of the challenge, schools compete to see who can get the highest percentage of their pupils walking, using a wheelchair, scooting or cycling to school. Your school’s best five days will determine your final position, but you can log journeys on all ten days if you wish.
