Children in the UK are in crisis. Whilst this issue is nothing new, the pandemic, the cost of living crisis and the war in Ukraine have driven the terrible inequalities existing around sport and activities for young people to devastating levels that will impact many generations to come.

Almost a quarter (23.4%) of children are obese

Over half of all children (53%) do not achieve the recommended daily activity levels

So, CIMSPA are coordinating a team to hike the equivalent of the UKs highest 3 peaks whilst carrying 20kg to ensure that No Child is Left Behind. The challenge is not going to be easy but the difference it will have on the lives of young people will make every grimace and ache more than worth it. Please give what you can, every single penny makes a difference.
