Join us as we virtually run, walk or jog the length of 31 runways, one for each day of December, in support of the aviation industry.

With the significant downturn in the aviation sector during Covid-19 and subsequent removal of travel restrictions earlier this year, the aviation industry is continuing to experience many challenges. These issues have not only impacted individuals' mental health, but their wellbeing is continually being tested to the limits.

What we plan to do:

The money raised from this years Run the Runways will be used to help more people in the aviation industry by providing different mental health support services.

The Aviation Action app:

Launching next year, Aviation Action has been working with Mentor 360 to develop an Aviation Action app that provides instant access to advice on mental health, performance, wellbeing, nutrition and much more. The app has been specifically designed to help people better face the obstacles in their lives.

We want to make sure that everyone in the aviation family can access the Aviation Action app resources for free, which is why we need your help!

Mental Health First Aiders:

Furthermore, Aviation Action plans to train one hundred mental health first aiders in 2023 to ensure that there is an increase in the level of face-to-face support and awareness within the aviation community.

The Run the Runways Event:

The Run the Runways campaign will run (no pun intended) throughout December and will see participants run, jog or walk the length of a UK runway each day. People all over the UK are getting involved in the Run the Runway Challenge and we need you to sponsor them for their incredible efforts to help us get to our target of £31,000.

Aviation Action has a supportive and friendly Facebook Community called 'Clearway and you are invited to join and share your daily adventures.
