The Prizes 👀
We’ve secured some brilliant prizes thanks to support from:
ECCO, Lowlu Sauna, London Climbing Centres, Exhale Coffee, Redemption Roasters, Proteintech, and NEB.
From shoes and experiences to coffee and science goodies, there’s plenty up for grabs.
Walk. Compete. Raise money for science.
Whether you walk to work, take the stairs, pace around the lab or head out for a weekend hike, every step counts.
The TIFM–TIFS Step Challenge is an individual competition open to the Crick community, researchers at other institutions, friends, family and anyone else who wants to get involved.
You do not need to have the highest step count to win. We’ve created several different prize categories so there are plenty of ways to compete.
And most importantly, every entry helps us raise money for This Is For Me – This Is For Science, supporting £5,000 Proof-of-Concept Awards for translational cancer research.
