See STRIDE in motion.
Our community is hosted on Strava, a free activity-tracking platform where members can share their walks and runs, encourage one another and take part in community challenges. You can join the STRIDE club using a free Strava account.
Every day, people working across education are walking, running, training, racing and encouraging one another.
Walk. Jog. Run. Run-walk. It all counts.
Make STRIDE work for you.
STRIDE is here to support your wellbeing, not add to your notifications!
Strava allows you to choose which emails and alerts you receive. If you’d prefer fewer updates, you can adjust your notification preferences at any time without leaving the community.

There’s no expectation to respond to posts, comment on activities or participate every week. Enjoy being part of STRIDE in whatever way works for you.
“We spend a lot of time creating environments in which children and young people can flourish. We also need to give ourselves permission to find the things that help us flourish.”
— David Higginbottom, STRIDE community member
