This is the first of 13 organisations I'll be walking with during my BBC Children in Need challenge, highlighting the incredible support available for young people and the importance of investing in their future.

Tomorrow I’ll share my walking challenge and the plan ahead
These walks are about more than raising money for @BBCCiN – they’re about celebrating the amazing people and organisations supporting young people every day.
A special thank you to my Mum for my teddy @bbcmerseyside – at Widnes, England
Today I completed my very first BusWalker Challenge ✅🚶
It seems mad to think that after all those miles, we are about to do it all again in November for this year's @BBCCiN ! 💛

❤️ | A Merseyside bus worker whose fundraising walks have raised more than £31,000 for food banks has been honoured with a handmade postbox topper celebrating his achievements.
It's funny how a simple idea can grow into something much bigger.
Five years ago, I started walking bus routes to raise awareness of the cost of living and support food banks. @ChrisKirkland43 @bbcmerseyside @S_Liv_Foodbank @LivEchonews @arrivanorthwest @TrussellUK – at Widnes, England

One year ago, an incredible team of bus walkers helped raise awareness of food poverty by walking from Southport to Runcorn—covering 6 Arriva depots and 51+ miles in one day.
Highlighting food poverty in a different way this summer.
Thank you to everyone who supported us 👏 – at Widnes, England

Liverpool Citizens has worked with Arriva Merseyside (@arrivanorthwest) to secure 200 weekly bus tickets for children in temporary accommodation this summer term.
This means children in TA won't miss out on education & will remain in their safe & trusted school environment.
A massive thank you to the lads from @firesnorthwich @fireworksllang1 ❤️ Great job boys 👏 – at Widnes, England
Come along and see our training bus. #InternationalWomensDay2026 @arrivanorthwest @BBCBreakfast @bbcmerseyside @BBCNWT @busambassador @CBWtweets @LCRMayor @libsoftiktok @LivEchonews @LpoolCityRegion @TheGuideLpool @_LiverpoolWorld – at Widnes, England

Prostate cancer mainly affects men over 40, and your risk increases with age. The risk is even higher for black men and men with a family history of prostate cancer.
