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.

StreetVet is an award winning national charity delivering free accessible veterinary care and support to the pets of those experiencing homelessness in multiple locations around the UK. StreetVet was founded to take veterinary care out onto the streets directly to the people and pets that need it most. What began in 2016 as two vets, and a backpack full of veterinary supplies, has grown into a robust volunteer-delivered organisation, with nearly 500 vet and vet nurse volunteers. The volunteers swap the practice for the pavement in 23 locations across the UK, from Glasgow to Cornwall, with more locations being added. StreetVet champions the importance of the human-animal bond and has treated more than 3,000 pets and conducted more than 11,700 consultations since its founding. Many people experiencing homelessness face the heartbreaking choice between securing shelter and a roof over their heads or keeping their best friend. A choice nobody should have to make. Recognising that less than 10% of UK hostels are pet-inclusive, StreetVet launched the StreetVet Accredited Hostel Scheme in 2020. This initiative aims to make it easier for hostels to welcome pets, ensuring owners and their beloved companions can stay together.

Northern Sumatra’s rainforests are irreplaceable. They are some of the most important forests on the planet, home to rare Tapanuli & Sumatran orangutans and other precious species. Supporting thousands of forest-edge communities, these ecosystems are key in the global fight against climate change. Our mission is to protect orangutans, their forests and their future. We aim to do this via our three goals: PROTECT - We work to keep existing rainforests secure and stable, ensuring a home for Sumatran and Tapanuli orangutans to enable their existing communities to thrive. CONNECT - We work to create "corridors" between fragmented areas of rainforest so that groups of orangutans are not isolated from each other. REWILD - We work to help degraded rainforest landscapes to recover by healing the land and planting a diverse range of trees and other fauna, creating even more space for orangutans to thrive.
