Last year, around 20,000 children and parents took part in sponsored walks in villages, towns and cities across the UK as part of our Turn on the Tap campaign.

This year, the walk is going global.

We’ve teamed up with our sister organisations in Australia, Canada and Europe to organise a Global Walk for Water – inviting schools and churches, children and parents, young and old to go for a local walk with a global impact.

Want to be a part of it?

It’s as easy as 1-2-3:

1. You organise a local walk with your school, church or community group (register your walk and plot it on our walk map by clicking here!)

2. Walkers join in the walk and agree to either be sponsored for taking part or donate a one-off amount of £4 towards Turn on the Tap. (£1 per mile!)

3. You all have a jolly good time going for a local walk with a global purpose!

4. Number 4 is purely here to let you know that the average distance women and children in Africa walk for water is 4 miles. How far would you go?

Once you’ve completed your walk, make sure you send us all the details – that way your story can feature on our Walk Stories page and your miles can be added to our walkometer!

Time to get those walking boots on…
