Pictures: Agnes Szabo A GROUP of determined women will walk five million steps a month for an entire year to raise money for a collection of charities close to their hearts. Sixteen women from Swanage are putting their best foot forward and each committed to walking more than 10,000 steps a day for a whole year. They began their challenge on January 1 and had already walked 1,300,000 steps by the end of their first week. Each month the group will choose a local charity to raise money for and donate every penny they raise to them.
