Happy Shoesday 2026
Happy Shoesday is back on Tuesday 19 May 2026!
This May, we’re inviting schools across the country to take part in a feel-good fundraising day that celebrates walking, wellbeing and creativity. Pupils simply wear any shoes that make them feel happy – bright, bold, sparkly, comfy, sporty, or wonderfully weird – and donate what they can.
Every school keeps 50% of the money raised, and the other 50% goes to Living Streets, helping us continue our vital work to make streets safer, healthier and more walkable for all.
WHY TAKE PART?
Happy Shoesday is an opportunity to boost school spirit, bring some simple fun, and celebrate individuality whilst raising funds for a brilliant cause.
- There are no complicated plans or hours of preparation.
- Register your school, start spreading the word and let the shoes do the talking!
- By taking part in our fundraiser your school can help normalise walking and wheeling to school and encourage healthier habits that could last a lifetime.
JOIN THE FUN
Your pupils will love taking part in our fun-filled day, which takes place during Walk to School Week – and you'll help children and their families enjoy safer, healthier and happier journeys to school.
Register your school today and join our celebration of fun, movement and creativity on 19 May 2026.
