On a May Saturday in both 2020 and 2021, thousands of members of the UK Government's international family came together to complete a global non-stop 24-hour virtual 'marathon'.  In more than 150 countries, colleagues and their families working for British embassies, high commissions, governors' offices and consulates, joined forces - each running, jogging or walking 1 mile in an unbroken chain from Vanuatu to Vancouver.  

As the Globalmile rippled around the world, families and colleagues - many separated by the impacts of Covid-19 - were reconnected and reunited in a common endeavour, raising hope and cheer, and at the same time raising funds for important charitable causes.

On 7 May 2022, we will do it all again!  This year, Globalmile 2022 will raise funds for two important initiatives:

- The Queen's Green Canopy to 'Plant a Tree for the Jubilee', and support a sustainable future for the next generation (supported via official QGC partner Cool Earth);

- The Disasters Emergency Committee's Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal to meet the needs of Ukrainian refugees and displaced persons.

If you are able, your contributions can make a big difference.  Thank you for taking the time to support Globalmile and these important charities.

Each contributing a little.  Together achieving a lot.
