At PEGS, our mission is to support parents, carers, and guardians experiencing Child-to-Parent Abuse (CPA). This often-overlooked issue affects numerous families, leading to feelings of isolation and helplessness. To continue providing essential services, we invite you to participate in our 50km Walk or Run Challenge during the month of March

Child-to-Parent Abuse occurs when a child exhibits abusive behaviours towards a parental figure. This abuse can be physical, verbal, economic, digital, coercive, or even sexual. It's estimated to occur in at least 3% of UK homes, though the actual figure may be higher. CPA is distinct from typical challenging behaviour, as it instils fear, forces lifestyle changes, and profoundly impacts families.

We encourage individuals and teams to commit to walking or running a total of 50km. You can choose to complete this distance in one go or spread it over multiple sessions, making it accessible to participants of all fitness levels. This challenge not only promotes physical well-being but also fosters community spirit and solidarity with families affected by CPA.

Your involvement directly supports our initiatives:

• £15 Raised: Sponsors a parent to have an initial call with one of our team members.
• £75 raised, this will sponsor 15 parents to attend our bespoke Bounce Back , Step Forward 2 part workshop
• £115 raised, this will sponsor a parent to work on a 1-1 basis with a practitioner for 6 weeks
• £215 raised, this will sponsor a cohort of 15 parents to access our EPIC programme - a bespoke 6-week programme
• 504 raised, this will pay for the team to deliver 7 x weekday daily practitioner led sessions in one month. We have over 100 parents attend these sessions every month currently
