WOW – The Walk to School Challenge

Living Streets want a nation where walking is the natural choice for everyday local journeys. Their mission is to achieve a better walking environment and inspire people to walk more.

The resources for primary schools range from five-day to year-round walking challenges. They have everything your school needs; from celebrating the walk to school, to raising awareness around the importance of sustainable travel. Or perhaps you want to embark on a longer-term behaviour change inititive combating congestion at the school gates and encouraging healthy habits for life? They’ve got it all!

WOW is a pupil-led initiative, where children self-report how they get to school every day using the interactive WOW Travel Tracker. If they travel sustainably (walk, cycle, scoot or ‘park and stride’) at least once a week for a month, they get rewarded with a badge.
