For nearly three decades, tens of thousands of incredible challengers have walked, biked, climbed and trekked throughout the world to raise life-changing funds for charities close to their hearts.
Together, we’re about to reach an extraordinary milestone: £100 million raised for good causes!
As we celebrate our 27th birthday, we’re launching a very special campaign to recognise the people behind every mile, every blister, every fundraising page and every unforgettable finish line.
Every fundraising challenge has a story. We want to know “what’s yours?”
Competion Details
We’re inviting you to share the story behind your fundraising journey for the chance to win a place on an exclusive VIP Celebration trek in the Sahara Desert next April.

Challenge Details
Join this exclusive, invite only adventure in the awe-inspiring Sahara Desert to help Simon and the Charity Challenge team to celebrate reaching £100,000,000 in funds raised through our challenges, across more than 50 countries over 27 years!
In April 2027, 100 incredible people who have played a key role in the journey to reach £100million will come together to trek 100km across the Sahara Desert and you could be one of them!
This five day trek passes through Morocco’s forbidding Sahara landscape punctuated by peaks, gorges, dunes and oases. At night, you will sleep under Africa’s star strewn skies and enjoy traditional Berber hospitality.
Although challenging, and through an unforgiving landscape, this trek promises to be life changing.
