Staffordshire Police Federation chair Lee Robinson is encouraging members to step on it during May and June to raise money for the Police Treatment Centres (PTC).
The PTC is launching its Big Step Challenge to get people moving and to raise funds for its work.
Take part in the challenge, which runs from 15 May to 14 June, on your own or as part of a team.
You can take on the Gentle Stepper, which is 250,000 steps; the 500,000 steps of the Middle Stepper, or the Top Stepper’s target of 750,000 steps.
Entry is free but those who take part are asked to raise a minimum of £30 for the PTC. The top three fundraisers will win a Fitbit Inspire 3.
Lee said: “The Big Step Challenge is a great way to raise money for the Police Treatment Centres and to get yourself a little bit fitter.
“It’s a month-long challenge and a fantastic way to support the work of a brilliant charity that makes a difference to so many serving and retired officers.”
Each year it costs £6.5 million to run the Police Treatment Centres in Harrogate in North Yorkshire and in Auchterarder in Perthshire, with fundraising needed to make up at least 10 per cent of the cost.
Lee said: “The PTC does fantastic work in treating ill and injured police officers for a range of physical and mental health issues.
“You never know when you might need the support of the PTC, so I’d encourage as many members as possible to get behind the charity and take on the challenge.”
