Summer Steps Challenge For Poverty Hurts

Reasons to choose Wilson Browne

Thousands across Northamptonshire are facing impossible choices — heating or eating, rent or food, debt or dignity.

Walk 7500 steps a day in August.

Wilson Browne Solicitors are backing Northamptonshire Community Foundation’s Poverty Hurts appeal with a Summer Steps Challenge. Walking a loop of our offices totals 113 miles — on average, 7500 steps a day in August — an achievable, healthy target.

First 100 sign-ups get a free Wilson Browne water bottle. Enjoy weekly prizes and a grand prize for the top walker. All we ask is a £30 donation — less than £1 a day for a great cause.

About Poverty Hurts

The cost-of-living crisis is deepening in 2025. Local charities are stretched to their limits, helping people in real distress. But they can’t do it alone and your support can be a lifeline.

Every donation to the #PovertyHurts appeal goes directly to grassroots groups across Northamptonshire, delivering:

  • Emergency food and fuel
  • Debt advice and crisis support
  • Mental health services
  • Help for the elderly and disabled
  • Community transport and digital access
  • Housing support and homelessness prevention

Rachel McGrath, CEO of Northamptonshire Community Foundation, says:

We believe in the power of community. No one should face a crisis alone. We’ve stood together through the pandemic and the early cost-of-living crisis. Now we must dig deep again.

Be part of something powerful. Help us support those who need it most.
