WheelPower Seasonal Shopping Evening
Support disabled people in Buckinghamshire at the annual Seasonal Shopping Evening from WheelPower. ...
Since 2021 the Winter Walk & Push has encouraged people to take on their own challenges and to get moving as they head into the new year. We understand that being motivated to exercise during the Winter months can be hard so lets join forces and together we can support each other all the way to the finish line.
Complete your challenge anywhere, and in any way. You might want to do it in the gym, or perhaps join forces with family and friends to reach the target together?
You could set a target of 25km or 50km …. or aim to walk/push 15 or 30 minutes a day. Its entirely up to you! When signing up please tell us what you plan to do and remember to share your progress with us throughout the month.
We are asking everyone who takes part in the WheelPower Winter Walk & Push to contribute to our fundraising campaign by creating a JustGiving page. Once created these links can then be easily shared and will help us to raise as much money as possible for disabled people across the UK. Here’s some examples of what the money you raise could be used for:
Raise over £20 you will receive your very own, money can’t buy WheelPower t-shirt for the remainder of your challenge!
Not taking part but still interested in supporting the walkers and pushers this January? … then please click on the button below to donate to the campaign and help us reach our fundraising goal.
Whatever you chose to do WheelPower will be here to support you every step and push along the way. Tell us what you are planning, share your stories with your friends & families and send us some social media updates and we will be there to cheer you on throughout January.
Please use the hashtag #WinterWalkPush and remember to tag WheelPower in when sharing your challenges on social media. We can be found on all platforms (now including Threads and TikTok!)

Outer Aylesbury Ring – For a long challenge that can be done in sections there is this walk which is a fully signed route. Some sections can also be walked individually as circular walks and each section has a guide. See here: https://sites.google.com/view/outeraylesburyring/home
Aylesbury Ring – A shorter signed route, but still more than most people could do in a day. It could be done in sections, and as it crosses the main radial roads, public transport could be used to get to starting places and from end points. See here: https://www.aylesbury-ramblers.org.uk/theaylesbury-ring
Round Aylesbury Walk – The oldest and shortest of the walks devised by Aylesbury Ramblers.

WheelPower is a charity that relies on donations and gifts in Wills to continue supporting disabled people.
On the 29 July 1948 our founder Professor Sir Ludwig Guttmann organised the very first Stoke Mandeville Games. 16 injured service personnel took part in an archery competition on the lawns of the hospital and this day sparked a flame that continued to grow into what we now know as the Paralympic Games.
