With one month to go until we celebrate the first European Mile, we are happy to share some big updates with you! 

European Mile webinar and partners’ gathering on 11 May
Next European Mile webinar “How do you get every child to move every day?” will take place on Tuesday, 11 of May 15:00-16:00 (CEST) with Elaine Wyllie, the founder of the Daily Mile and Patty Scholten, Project Manager at JOGG (NL). Please find the details and registration link here.  

The webinar itself will be 60 min and from 16:00-16:30 (CEST) we’d like to introduce to the European Mile partners the concept of the European Mile Virtual Tour Across Europe that will be presented by our Polish partner V4Sport and Jakub Kalinowski. You are free to join the entire session or only the second part according to your availability, but please use the registration link above. If you missed the last webinar about organising charitable running events, you can find the recap and recording here. 

New PR resources
PR resources to help you promote your event are gathered in this Dropbox Folder which includes very practical resources such as press release templates and FAQs. 

How to organise a European Mile event toolkit
The official event organisation toolkit has also been published both in digital and pdf formats, where we hope you and your network will find inspiration and useful advice. 

Donation Module 
The Donation Module is now open and gaining traction - over 25,000 miles are already contributed from across Europe. Make sure to count your miles and log them in! If you want to know more, have a look at this article about the partnership with the Daily Mile Foundation to whom the financial support will go.

P.S As there is exactly one month to go until the big celebration of 5 June, I hope you’ll also get excited by the videos that were just posted on social media (Twitter, Facebook) to mark the occasion. 

#FindYourMile and enjoy the journey!
