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.

Action. One third of our name and 100% of what we’re about. And while we’re talking numbers, here’s another: one woman dies in the UK from ovarian cancer every two hours. Although five-year survival rates for ovarian cancer are improving, other cancers, such as breast cancer, had better survival rates two generations ago than ovarian cancer does today. We’re here to change all that. And we’re following two routes to achieve that change: awareness raising and scientific research. Over the last fifteen years, our efforts to fund and facilitate the very best ovarian cancer research have achieved dramatic results. But, of course, there’s more work to be done. Thanks to the continuing generosity of our supporters, we’re now committed to funding the next generation of research and to accelerating progress in three main areas: preventing the disease, diagnosing it early, and developing effective, personalised treatments. We believe this approach will help more women survive ovarian cancer than ever before. Take action with us now and transform the lives and prospects of women today and for generations to come.

Our charity supports wards and services across Northern Devon and areas of North Cornwall to provide care and equipment that is over and above that provided by the NHS. We have launched the Cancer and Wellbeing Centre Appeal to raise funds to build a state of the art information and support centre for local people affected by cancer. One in two people will get cancer at some stage in their life. In Northern Devon we have 9000 cancer referrals each year, and unfortunately, in our area 1700 patients annually are diagnosed with cancer. The good news is that people are now living longer with cancer and we want to help them and their family/carers. Once built, this incredible centre, with overnight accommodation, will be the first dedicated centre of its kind locally. This will be a significant step forward to meeting the rising demand for cancer services locally, and provide support from diagnosis to after care. Cancer can affect every part of your life and people need financial, emotional and practical support, as well as medical treatment. Whether they're the patient, are caring for someone or are simply worried about cancer, the centre will provide a place to come to find a wide range of services. For instance, we hope to provide complementary therapies, Reiki and reflexology, counselling, support groups and nutritional advice, all under one roof, and in a relaxing non-clinical environment. And, when it’s needed most, new overnight accommodation will be accessible to patients, their family and loved ones. To date with public support we have raised £800k but there is still a long way to go towards raising the £1.5 million needed to make this a reality. The new centre, at North Devon District Hospital, will mean that no one going through cancer treatment in Northern Devon will have to do it alone. It’s only with public support that we can make this happen.

Overgate Hospice opened in 1981 and has now been running for 30 years. During all of that time we have relied and still rely on the local people of Calderdale to raise the funds needed to keep the Hospice open. Our running costs have now reached £2.8 million, of which only approximately 28% is given to us by the NHS. This means that we need to raise £2.2 million a year to keep our doors open to the Calderdale area; a massive £6,100 is needed every day. Because you care, we can. Just £5 could pay for an in-patient's daily meals, or £8 could pay for a patient's clinical supplies for a day, or a wonderful £50 could contribute towards a patients care costs. At Overgate we have a 12 bed inpatient unit, providing both end of life and respite care. There are doctors and nurses providing 24 hour care to the patient whilst supporting families. All the doctors and nurses at the hospice have been specially trained for palliative care. We provide care for people with life limiting illnesses such as multiple sclerosis, motor-neurone disease or cancer.
