We’ve put together this helpful programme of events to provide inspiration for your next fundraiser.

Whether that be running, cycling, walking, climbing, swimming, abseiling, skydiving or any other crazy challenge; Going the Extra Mile means that you can raise lots of money through sponsorship.

No matter the challenge you want to set yourself, it’s truly an amazing feeling to get involved in a local fundraiser and even better knowing that your challenge has raised a chunk of money to support the communities where you live, work and play.

For those who prefer office socials to 10K’s, we’ve got lots of ideas For the Fun of It, where you can have some fun with your fundraising by organising office get togethers. Raising money at these activities is really easy too. All you need to do is to charge a fee for taking part.
