Some of our challenges are operated exclusively in aid of one particular charity, but where you see the words “in aid of any charity”, you can raise funds for any cause that you feel passionate about, as long as they are a UK or Irish registered charity, and they authorise you to fundraise in their name.
We will help to get the authorisation for you to fundraise, so choose from one of the many charities on our database, or if you don’t find them listed, you can give us some contact details when you book and we’ll get in touch with them about becoming a charity partner.
Please type in the name (or part of the name) of the charity below in the ‘search term’ field below. If the name is a direct match, it will appear at the top of the results list. i.e. if you type Cancer, Cancer UK will appear towards the top of the results, British Cancer UK will appear lower down, and The UK Foundation of Lung Cancer Charities will appear even further down. So please try the exact match for the first few words to make it easier to find your charity. If you type a search term that is not in the name of the charity, but is in the description about the charity, it will appear after all of the above named results.

Norfolk Community Foundation encourages charitable giving and connects donors with communities across Norfolk. An independent registered charity, we are part of a national movement of community foundations that manages funds for its donors, provides grants for community projects and aims to contribute to achieving social change in the local area for the long term. We connect donors with the places and causes that they care about - whether it be supporting young disadvantaged people, helping to improve mental health and wellbeing, or providing community activities for the socially isolated. The Rachel Lane Fund was set up to carry on the fundraising started by Rachel who finally said goodbye to the world on the 22 October 2012 aged just 27. Rachel Lane battled cancer for five years and her courage and inspiration touched so many people. Despite having to undergo many different treatments, with often dreadful side effects, Rachel never once complained or said ‘why me’. She was just totally focused on kicking the cancer. During Rachel’s long journey she helped many people and raised lots of money for charity. This fund will ensure her inspiration and good work continues to help others. Money raised is managed by Norfolk Community Foundation and split between two local charities – Star Throwers and Big C.

North of England Children's Cancer Research was set up in 1979 by a group of parents whose lives had been changed forever by childhood cancer. Over £30 million has been raised to help establish a world class team of researchers based in the Wolfson Childhood Cancer Research Centre, Newcastle Upon Tyne. We have come a long way since 1979, with 80% of children diagnosed with cancer now surviving. However, there is still a long way to go. Many childhood cancer treatments are harsh and distressing and cause life altering side effects. We are funding research to find more effective and less toxic treatments to fight childhood cancers and help more children live long, happy lives.

We are the only independent cancer research charity fighting the toughest cancers in North West England and North Wales. Our belief is that by working together with our researchers, fundraisers and supporters, we can save more lives sooner. 1 in 2 of us will be touched by cancer at some point in our lives. Cancer is one of the biggest causes of premature adult deaths in the UK. Every year around 350,000 new cases of cancer are diagnosed and more than 160,000 people die from the disease. North West England and North Wales, where we operate, are home to some of the UK’s highest cancer rates. In the North West in particular you are 25% more likely to be diagnosed with cancer than anywhere else in the country. A gap which is unfortunately widening. The good news is that more people are now surviving cancer than ever before. Today, Thanks to research, half of all people diagnosed with cancer will now survive. This is why funding for cancer research is so important. Some of the world’s leading cancer research is happening right here in the North West of England and North Wales. North West Cancer Research works in partnership with some of the country’s top research centres based at the University of Liverpool, Lancaster University and Bangor University. Our researchers are making vital progress into our understanding of cancer, how to detect, prevent and treat it, benefitting patients in the North West, North Wales and beyond. We have committed to funding more than £12.3million worth of research over the next five years. To date our funding has helped facilitate clinical and laboratory research, looking at skin cancer, lung cancer, head and neck cancers and many, many more. It has helped facilitate the first ever clinical trial to look at the effective treatment of bowel cancer in Liverpool, and throughout Europe. It has allowed us to purchase state of the art equipment, such as a Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer at Bangor University which is vital for fundamental cancer research. This is just a small snapshot of the research we fund. We are only able to do so thanks to the strength of our supporters, who to date have helped us raise millions of pounds for cancer research. Thanks to their help, our researchers can help people affected by cancer today and in future generations to come. Our aim is simple: to fund the best medical research for local people in North West England and North Wales, to stop cancer sooner.

Nottinghamshire Hospice provides hogh quality palliative care to adults in Nottinghamshire living with a life limiting illness, and provides respite and support to their carers. 1. Day therapy – coming to terms with a terminal diagnosis can be very hard, especially if you live alone or with a partner who is struggling to cope. We provide the only dedicated unit in Nottinghamshire for people with a terminal diagnosis. Every day, up to 35 people attend, giving carers a much needed break. Our palliative care nurses, backed by a team of doctors, physiotherapists, counsellors, complimentary therapists, and volunteers, provide physical symptom and pain management, emotional support and, perhaps most important for all of those living alone, companionship. 2. Hospice at home – our team of palliative care nurses help a patient and their family to define what a ‘good death’ means for them. For the vast majority, it means dying at home, as free from pain as possible, with their family close by. We provide calm, compassionate and caring support from referral to death, managing pain and giving over-worked carers a break. 3. Counselling and Bereavement Support – as most people want to die at home, this can place an enormous strain on family carers. Often the carer must cope with the emotional strain of grief for their terminally-ill loved one. With the focus of the medical profession on the patient, the needs of the carer can be forgotten. We provide pre and post-bereavement support for people across the whole of Nottinghamshire who have experienced a bereavement - they do not have to have previously been involved with Nottinghamshire Hospice.

Abuse ruins childhood, but it can be prevented. That’s why we’re here. That’s what drives all our work, and that’s why – as long as there’s abuse – we will fight for every childhood. We help children rebuild their lives, and we find ways to prevent abuse from ruining any more. So when a child needs a helping hand, we’ll be there. When parents are finding it tough, we’ll help. When laws need to change, or governments need to do more, we won’t give up until things improve. Abuse changes childhood. But so can we.

Through donations and sponsorship we have delivered 60 plaques and 1 statue in the UK. We are currently in the process of crowdfunding for the Windrush and Commonwealth Nurses and Midwives Initiative which includes the installation of a 7ft x 7ft statue weighing over 5 tonnes; and publication of a book 'Nursing a Nation'.

Between Friday 7th March 2025 and Thursday 13th March 2025, two intrepid adventurers will be joining a team of six others from across the built environment to take on The Arctic Challenge 2025 to raise money for The O'Brien Charitable Trust. This challenge is completely different to everything you know. Our adventurers will live an Arctic wilderness lifestyle, without electricity, running water or a flushing toilet. They will drive a team of loyal huskies through the snow-covered forests of Swedish Lapland in freezing temperatures. Experiencing the silence of nature as they glide through this winter wonderland, while taking the opportunity to spot elk, moose, and reindeer with the potential to see the spectacular Northern Lights. The adventure begins in Kiruna, Sweden’s northernmost city, situated 145kms north of the Arctic Circle. The region is home to the Sami people, and the adventurers will learn about their culture including spending the night in a Sami tee pee.
