The Big Step Forward

The Big Step Forward is Pancreatic Cancer UK’s award-winning virtual walking event. By taking part you’ll be joining us and thousands of others on Saturday 17th July, as we walk physically apart, but virtually together across the UK, to fund world-leading research and stamp out pancreatic cancer.

We’ve created a Big Step Forward app to help you track your walk and enable you to connect to others who, just like you, are taking steps to save lives. We invite you to join our interactive walking experience, so that wherever you are in UK or even the world, you’ll feel connected to others and have the excitement of a live event, without needing to gather in large groups.

The Big Step Forward app technology allows you to map and track your walk

Share photos of your walk in the news feed throughout the day

Connect to your fundraising page to collect more donations as you walk

Connect to your social media platforms to easily update your friends and family of your progress

Sync your account with the Health app (HealthKit) to read and track your workout data and calculate your leaderboard score

Follow your teammates progress, as well as your own

Feel connected to thousands of others taking on The Big Step Forward

Research breakthroughs give us hope and will save lives. The funds you raise will have the power to make that possible. Whatever the distance, every step you take will support world-leading researchers to speed up diagnosis and improve treatments, and enable our nurses to support people affected by pancreatic cancer now. By walking together, we can create change to save lives.
