Join Sight Matters this August for our Stride for Sight challenge – a month of movement, motivation and making a difference.

Whether it’s five miles, five minutes, or five mindful moments, we’re inviting you to take on a daily activity that suits your ability and schedule – all while raising vital funds to support blind and visually impaired people across the Isle of Man.

 

What is the “5-A-Day” Challenge?

It’s flexible, inclusive, and all about consistency. You choose your daily commitment – something centred around the number 5 – and stick with it throughout August.

Here are just a few ideas:

  • Walk 5 miles

  • Run 5 kilometres

  • Swim or cycle for 5 minutes

  • Spend 5 minutes stretching, meditating or dancing

  • Do 5 laps of your garden or 5 sit-to-stands from a chair

No matter your age or fitness level, there’s a way to take part. You can go solo, team up with friends or family, or even take it on as a workplace challenge.

 

Why Get Involved?

  • Boost your physical and mental wellbeing

  • Create healthy new habits

  • Prepare for the Ivan Soulsbury Coast 2 Coast

  • Support your local sight loss charity

  • Make your steps matter
