The Home/Away challenge is 555 miles in total – and running until September.
Teams or individuals can sign up to take part and complete the challenge in a number of ways.
Bryony Shepherd, Community and Events Fundraiser said: “I think we’ve all missed playing and watching sport since lockdown, and our Home/Away challenge is designed to allow people to come together and feel part of a team again.”
So far, over £1000 has been raised as part of the challenge, and accompanying appeal.
Ms Shepherd said: “All sponsorship money raised will go directly towards funding our frontline service supporting people who are homeless, without a fixed address, in crisis or suffering with addiction and mental health challenges.”
