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.

Every year, 4,200 children and young people are diagnosed with cancer, with around 1,800 under the age of 14. Sadly, of these 1,800, 240 children and young people will lose their lives to this cruel disease. Children diagnosed with cancer often face severe mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, and behavioural issues, which impact their entire families. The emotional toll leads to strained relationships and alters family dynamics, while children can feel disconnected from peers, hindering their social development. Hospital stays and treatment disrupt education, affecting academic progress. Parents may feel isolated due to caregiving demands, limiting their social participation. Young cancer survivors also struggle with emotional issues and concerns about their future well-being. Additionally, families face financial hardships, limited support services, and healthcare inequalities, further intensifying their struggles. For over 32 years, Lennox Children’s Cancer Fund has been a lifeline for these children across the UK. We support the entire family throughout their child’s cancer journey, from diagnosis through treatment and beyond. We recognise that every family's experience is unique, which is why we work closely with them to ensure that they are supported in the best way possible.

Thank you for considering supporting our charity. WE ARE UNIQUE AMONGST ALL OTHER BLOOD CANCER CHARITIES. We are the only UK charity that offers a FREE umbilical cord blood collection and banking service for qualifying families. This service, called Model Cell Biobank, is designed to allow the collection and storage of cord blood stem cells to families who have a history of cancer in their immediate family and who cannot afford to pay for a private service. These cells will then be available for at least the following 25 years to treat the child from whom they were collected, or another family member. The service costs us over £2,000 per collection to deliver and your support could give hope, and possible life saving treatment, to a family who needs it now, or in the future and cannot afford to pay for it themselves. Please help us, help them. Thank you.
