Charity Challenges
Charity challenges are a great way of raising funds whilst also being rewarding for those taking part.
So what is on your bucket list?! We can help you to fulfil your challenge ambitions.
If you would like to do something 'physical' to raise funds for Charity Link, we'd love to hear from you.
We can support you in your Challenge - from giving tips on fundraising, to sending promotional materials... most of all we'd like to be able to say thank you for your support!
Find out about our organised challenges below - including our Leicestershire 3 Peaks Challenge, our parkrun 150 Challenge and our Go4it Challenges. We also have information sheets on Parachute Jumps, Run for Charity Link and Climbing Everest (virtually!).
We've also hosted firewalks, sleepouts, and had people trek the Sahara and Great Wall of China.
(If there are a number of people interested in a particular activity we can look at organising a team experience).
For overseas challenge experiences, why not check out some of the options on the Global Adventures website.
We'd love to know what challenge you'd like to do! Email hello@charity-link.org
"It’s fantastic to see all the ways the community comes together to improve the lives of people in need. From undertaking challenges, to dress-up days, quizzes, raffles and cake-bakes, to donating, setting up a regular gift, volunteering or spreading the word, it all helps to ensure people living in hardship are warm, safe and fed and have the basics in life that we all deserve."
