Did you know that May is National Walking Month 2026? At Retina UK, we would love you to take on a 5K challenge every day in May and support our vital work too - during our 50th anniversary year.

Sign up today!

To take part, complete our short form below and donate £10 to enter. Once signed up, please create a JustGiving page and then ask your friends and family to sponsor you as you take on either a daily walk or something else (run, cycle, swim etc)! You could also complete 5,000 steps as an alternative to 5K of daily exercise.

We would love to see your social media posts and stories, so please tag Retina UK in your posts and use the hashtags #TeamRetinaUK and #5KADayInMay.

If you raise £100 or more, we will send you a complimentary Retina UK t-shirt to wear, or you can purchase your own via our shop.

If you have any queries, please get in touch with James Clarke, Head of Income Generation at Retina UK, on [email protected].

Gift Aid

Add 25% more to your donation at no cost to you. A Gift Aid declaration allows Retina UK to claim tax back on eligible donations. It means that for every £1 you donate to Retina UK we can claim back 25p, at no extra cost to you.

Gift Aid consent
By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Retina UK to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that Retina UK will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.
