Partners & Supporters

The people behind the skip — and its next chapter.

A small team, an extraordinary community and over 1,020 miles completed: 39 marathons in 40 days. Thank you to every partner and supporter. The physical challenge is finished, but the kindness campaign continues.

Why partner with us

A movement built on kindness, carried by community.

The Great British Skip was more than a physical challenge. It remains an invitation to rediscover what unites us — and a fundraising mission to bring kindness into more schools and communities through 52 Lives and the School of Kindness.

The physical skip is complete. We continue raising funds to carry its impact beyond the finish line — through kindness stories, the documentary and book ambitions, and a long-term legacy of kindness.

Your support carries the message forward. Whether you support the campaign for £25 or step in as a Headline Partner, your name belongs on this page.
