making it an ideal time to embrace new
habits and goals. The initiative provides
structured support to help participants
overcome inertia and turn intentions into
action.
A Collective Impact
While individual efforts are valuable, the
collective impact of March On is immense.
For instance, thousands of participants
pledging to reduce energy consumption
or eliminate single-use plastics can make
a tangible difference in combating climate
change.
Strengthening Communities
By involving local groups, schools, and
businesses, March On fosters stronger
communities. Whether it’s volunteering at
food banks or organising neighbourhood
events, these efforts bring people together
and promote a spirit of collaboration.
Personal Growth and Fulfilment
March On isn’t just about external
change—it’s about internal growth.
Achieving goals, however small, builds
confidence, resilience, and a sense of
purpose. Participants often find that the
challenge serves as a catalyst for broader
lifestyle changes.
STORIES OF SUCCESS
In previous years, similar initiatives have
inspired remarkable stories:
A primary school class in Manchester set a
goal to plant 500 trees, involving students,
parents, and teachers. By the end of the
month, they had exceeded their target,
creating a community orchard.
A group of friends in Bristol pledged to
reduce their collective carbon footprint by
cycling instead of driving during March.
Their efforts continued long after the
challenge, inspiring others to follow suit.
An individual participant in Edinburgh
used the challenge to focus on mental
health, sharing daily mindfulness exercises
online. Their journey resonated with many,
sparking conversations about mental
well-being within their community.
These examples illustrate the potential of
March On to spark meaningful, lasting
change.
