Sports fans and communities across the North of England will come together for March of the Day III, a six-day walking challenge covering 340 miles and visiting 44 football and rugby league grounds.
The third annual March of the Day challenge will be the biggest yet, following three previous successful fundraising events since 2023, which have collectively raised over £400,000 for MND charities.
From Monday June 1 until Saturday June 6, 2026, participants will walk from Liverpool to Stockport County, then on to the Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease in Leeds.
Along the way, walkers will pay tribute to sporting heroes affected by MND, including the late Rob Burrow CBE, Stephen Darby, and Marcus Stewart.
