- Blocktober is a humble but determined Cape Town-based movement of people against gender-based violence (GBV), started in 2020. We come together every October to walk, run or ride to the King’s Blockhouse on the slopes of Table Mountain, or to swim, as an act of slow-burn solidarity with survivors of GBV.
- People living anywhere can join, wherever they are, by doing local, equivalent ascents (approximately 300m ascent over 7.5km or by swimming 31 minutes or laps). Over past Octobers the Blocktober founder cyclists rode over 20km daily for 31 days, and more than 2x the height of Everest.
