Day One Trauma Support
100k in June Challenge 2024
Complete 100k your way in June and raise vital funds to help rebuild lives following catastrophic injury.
Story
The Cause
In the briefest of moments, a catastrophic injury can shatter someone’s life. Surviving these catastrophic injuries is just the start.
We are the only national charity to provide personalised care to anyone affected by a catastrophic injury of any kind, their loved ones and their families – for as long it takes. Because we believe that no one who has suffered a catastrophic injury should be left to rebuild their life on their own.
The Challenge
Cover 100k any way you choose across the month of June. Whether that's running, walking, cycling or on horseback - the choice is yours!
Your support will mean people get professional, compassionate, helpful support and advice from Day One after their accident. Not only that, but we’ll be there to help for as long as it takes.
We don't receive any NHS or government funding. By taking part in our 100k in June challenge, you'll be helping raise vital funds and awareness, so more people affected by life-changing injuries can get the support they need.
The Impact
We rely on voluntary donations to continue to be there for those who need us. Every kilometre you cover and every pound you raise will help us provide more advice and support to people who've suffered a catastrophic injury.
£160 could pay for 8 emergency packs to help the most vulnerable homeless people leave hospital with dignity after an accident of assault.
£300 could cover the cost of a small emergency grant, helping families with the immediate out-of-pocket expenses created by an accident.
£550 could cover the cost to train a new Peer Support Volunteer. The demand is high for our team of amazing volunteers who have lived their own trauma and now provide people with hope and inspiration during their recovery journey.
