How to start fundraising

You need to create your fundraising page on JustGiving within 48 hours of registering for your challenge. Then you can start your fundraising by sharing your page online with your friends and family.

Fundraise as a team

As long as you’re all fundraising for the same charity, you can create a team fundraising page on JustGiving. You will still have to reach the combined total fundraising amount as the target is per person, not per team.

Fundraising concerns

Speak to your charity about any worries. They are the experts and will offer you support, materials and inspiration throughout.

Remember only 50% of the target has to be reached 3 weeks before the challenge meaning you’ve got time after the challenge to impress everyone with your achievement and keep on fundraising.

Help for you

If you don’t reach the fundraising target, there are alternative options. You can always change to a self-funded place and still take part in the challenge.

Next steps

Once you've got your charity place, your details will be passed to the charity and you will hear from them within 14 days.

We were so impressed how well organised it was. From registration to the finish line everything was amazing - the staff were so lovely and helpful - the catering was outstanding and all the facilities clean and tidy. A huge thank you to you all!!

For my first event I was amazed at how well organised it was. Particularly as I was on my own. Very well signposted. Excellent medical assistance. Very friendly crew. Fab event!

4 steps to wellbeing
Sleep well

A good night's sleep is an essential foundation for a healthy lifestyle, effective training and weight control.

Train slow

Low-intensity training is easier for you, reduces the risk of injury and helps builds an efficient aerobic system.

Eat natural

Cut out sugar & junk food, reduce carbs, eat natural foods and train your body to burn fat for fuel.

Get outdoors

Fresh air, natural light and reconnecting with nature all help to improve mental and physical wellbeing.
