40 Miles for SMILES

Our 40 miles for SMILES event has now ended. We’d like to thank everyone for taking part. Click here to view photos from this fabulous event.

*Did you know that 30 minutes of moderate activity 5 days a week has a fabulous effect on your mind and body? Exercise helps to boost your mood, increases your energy level, reduces stress and builds self-confidence, and reduces the risk of conditions like heart disease and diabetes. And with wonderful reasons like that, what more incentive is there to get a little more active?

40 Miles for SMILES is a brand new national event to celebrate Slimming World’s special 40th anniversary year. Between 18th May and 15th June we’re challenging members in our 6,000 groups up and down the UK to cover 40 miles. They can walk, run, cycle or swim the distance, or even come up with their own unique way to travel 40 miles.

SMILES’ charity partner for 2009 is the NSPCC and all of the money raised from the event will go to the NSPCC’s Child Voice Appeal to improve ChildLine and the NSPCC Helpline.

As well as raising money, 40 Miles for SMILES is the perfect opportunity to get started with exercise. And, if you’re already getting active, maybe this is the challenge you’ve been looking for!
