The Daily Mile Foundation appoints Giant Digital to refresh and future-proof its website

  • Giant News

We’re thrilled to be partnering with The Daily Mile Foundation - the global movement that encourages children to get active by running or walking for 15 minutes a day - to deliver a refreshed and re-energised website experience.

With thousands of schools across 96 countries taking part, The Daily Mile has grown into a worldwide initiative with a powerful mission: to improve the health and wellbeing of children through simple, daily activity. Now, the Foundation’s website needs to reflect the scale and ambition of that impact.

What We’ll Be Delivering:

  • A refreshed, user-first design that engages new audiences
  • Improved UX to make key information easier to find
  • Stronger storytelling and visual identity
  • A streamlined CMS to support the Foundation’s team
  • A flexible platform that’s built to scale with their growth

This partnership marks the beginning of a broader digital transformation journey, starting with the design and development of a future-ready website.

For The Daily Mile, it’s about creating a space that reflects their energy, amplifies their message, and makes it easier for schools, educators, and families to get involved.

We’re incredibly proud to be supporting the Foundation in this next chapter and look forward to helping them inspire even more movement around the world.

To strengthen our support for schools, teachers and our stakeholders, The Daily Mile Foundation is embarking on a crucial initiative, the development of a new website and we are thrilled to collaborate with Giant Digital on this pivotal project. Our goal is to create a site that not only fully caters for the expanding Daily Mile community, but also educates and inspires others about the vital role that physical activity and social interaction plays in children’s health and wellbeing. We believe Giant Digital’s expertise in the third sector makes them the ideal partner for this project and we are excited to see what we can create together.
