The Community Mile brings people together, helping vulnerable communities take that first step towards a healthier, happier, more active life. Delivered in partnership with local organisations, it creates safe, supportive spaces where everyone feels welcome.
How it works
We provide a 3-month training and support package, empowering people or groups to deliver The Community Mile tailored to their community. Dedicated Champions are trained to inspire participation, listen, guide, and connect people with local support services, especially those often overlooked.
After this, we continue with 3 months of light-touch support, helping communities embed the Mile and take meaningful steps towards wellbeing. Participants join The Mason Mile network, gaining access to workshops, updates, and a safe online space to connect with like-minded people.
Why it matters
For many, even small steps can feel impossible. The Community Mile breaks down barriers, builds confidence, sparks friendships, and creates lasting change — one step at a time.
