This August, our mates at the Hutt Street Centre are calling on all of us to walk a mile or more a day to raise funds for those experiencing homelessness.

The charity walk, ‘Walk A Mile In My Boots’, kicks off between August 5 and 11 and asks Adelaideans to step up and make a difference.

The fundraiser aims for 70K miles (that’s a cool 112,654 kilometres) for the 7,000 people experiencing homelessness in South Australia, so let’s get stomping, quick smart.

Visit the Walk A Mile website to read more, sign up and – crucially – get your very own fundraising link.

The team at Hutt Street Centre will also have a special Walk A Mile event on Friday 9 August so we serial stompers can cross the finish line together.

It takes the support of the entire community to ensure everybody has a safe place to sleep and warm meal so check out the website and assemble a team. We’ve got work to do.
