A staff team from Muirhouse Housing Association is stepping out on an intrepid journey to raise funds to tackle cancer this month. The team is taking part in Cancer Research UK’s Walk All Over Cancer campaign – MHA’s Hannah Robertson explains more:

The team at MHA have been working hard to take steps to make Muirhouse Miles Better!

We have decided to get on our feet and raise money for charity! Five of us will be walking 10,000 steps every day of the month of September – that’s five meals EACH every day!

We will be raising money for Cancer Research, and as we do this we will be completing a virtual tour of as many Housing Associations as we can while clocking up the miles every day for a month.

Paula Mcvay, Stevie McAvoy, Susanne Connell, Grit Neilson and Barry Allan are the staff who are taking up the challenge. Luckily Muirhouse is situated very close to the beach and some lunch-time walks will help to increase our step count!

We also have an in house support team to help keep track of the miles and housing associations that we will pass on our journey.

We will walk 500 miles and we will walk 500 more …!
