Avril sets off on 1 May 2026 and will take her 8-10 weeks to complete the 1,000 miles.
That means she’ll be walking around 15-20 miles every day for two months! We are so happy to announce that Avril is supporting SignHealth as part of this incredible challenge.
Find out more on our Silent steps page, full information (BSL) and all you need to know is there.

“SignHealth offers a range of services, but mental health and dometic abuse are so important; this affects and moves me, so I wanted to fundraise and give back; to serve the deaf community, who I cherish.”
–Avril
We are so grateful that Avril has decided to donate the leftover money to SignHealth as part of this amazing challenge. Her determination and passion are helping raise awareness of the barriers deaf people face and the work still needed to break them down.
