Every Step Makes a Difference

Miles of Hope is a community challenge supporting NOAH. Whether you walk, run, cycle, use a wheelchair or take part in a way that works for you, every mile you complete helps raise awareness and support for people facing homelessness and hardship across Bedfordshire.

Take part as an individual, family, school, business or community group. Log your miles throughout the campaign and watch our community total grow.

Our Challenge

This summer, we are asking individuals, families, schools, churches, businesses and community groups to help us reach a shared target:

30,000 Miles

The distance represents the many miles people experiencing rough sleeping may walk while trying to access food, safety, warmth, support and somewhere to rest.

By taking part, you are helping to turn those miles into hope, action and support for people in our community.

How It Works

1. Sign up
Join as an individual or create a team with your family, workplace, school, church or community group.

2. Get sponsored
Ask friends, family or colleagues to sponsor your miles. We suggest £1 per mile, but every donation makes a difference.

3. Walk anywhere
Choose your own route, distance and pace. You can walk locally, on holiday, with friends, with colleagues or as part of one of NOAH’s organised community walks.

4. Log your miles
Come back to this page whenever you complete a walk and submit your miles using the form below.

5. Help us reach 30,000 miles
Your miles will be added to our community total as we work together towards the 30,000 mile challenge.
