Step into September

Stepping Up Against Bullying

Taking place throughout September, ‘Step Into September’ is for walkers/runners of all ages and all abilities who want to raise vital funds and awareness to help those affected by bullying behaviour.

You can take part wherever you live!

Join hundreds of people up and down the country (and some from abroad) who are Stepping into September to enable BulliesOut to continue to be there for those who need us.

This is your challenge, so whether you want to achieve 55,000 steps (25 miles), 110,000 steps (50 miles), or 220,000 steps (100 miles), this is the event for you! (Steps calculated with the miles to steps online calculator). You can choose to walk so many steps a day for 30 days, or take on your own walks and hikes throughout the month, whatever you decide, you set the pace. If you want to walk more or less, that’s entirely up to you.

Every step you take will enable us to continue to be there for those affected by bullying behaviour. Whether your school would like to use the month to encourage children to walk to and from school or spend their free time going on walks with their whole family… Or your workplace can encourage lunchtime walks, walking to work or ask employees to walk on their own or together outside of work time… Or maybe you would just like to take on this challenge alone.

There is no registration fee and no set amount to raise – by Stepping into September together, we can #MakeADifference to the lives of those affected by bullying behaviour.

Jar of Confidence Workshop

Confidence is not something that can be learned like a particular subject or set of rules. Confidence is a state of mind and is linked to self-esteem. Self-esteem reflects an individual’s overall subjective emotional evaluation of his or her own worth. It is the positive or negative decision made by an individual as an attitude towards the self.

Many young people have low self-esteem and this impacts on their confidence. During our Jar of Confidence Creative Workshop, we discuss how bullying affects self-esteem and confidence and using engaging activities, we identify what makes you confident on the inside and the outside. We challenge negative self-talk, explore ways to improve self-esteem and confidence and using their own creativity, young people decorate their own Jar of Confidence and fill it with positive quotes and messages.

Anti Bullying Week 2022

November 14^th - 18^th 2022 is Anti-Bullying Week and this year's theme is Reach Out. We are already fully booked to deliver our work in schools that week and we will also be running the School Staff Awards Wales. We successfully launched this last year and are hoping to see it grow and grow.

About us

Established in May 2006, we are one of the most dedicated and ambitious anti-bullying charities. Our award winning work is delivered across the UK and each year, through our work with individuals, schools, youth and community settings and the workplace, we provide education, training and support to thousands of people.

Through our innovative, interactive workshops and training programmes, we use our experience, energy and passion to focus on awareness, prevention, building empathy and positive peer relationships all of which are crucial in creating a nurturing environment in which young people and adults can thrive.

Raising aspirations, encouraging empathy, respect and responsibility are crucial. We integrate practical, interactive activities into our workshops and training programmes as we find them to be a powerful component that helps engage young people and foster a safe, caring and respectful learning environment. These activities challenge attitudes, encourage debate and discussion, provide young people with empathy, insights into their behaviour and problem-solving strategies, as well as building a positive teamwork and community ethos.

Young people have so much potential and if given the chance, can create real change and impact in our schools and communities. The next generation are the future workforce of Great Britain. They will become our future leaders and decision makers and if we are to create a more inclusive, non-judgemental and caring society in the future, we need to inspire and embed those values in young people now.

By building the positive self-image required to maintain well-being and personal resilience, we can empower and inspire young people to realise their true potential as leaders and role models and this can have a positive impact on their future education and/or employment choices.
