Challenge events
Set your own challenge or take part in an organised event to raise vital funds and awareness for the Trust. There are so many events out there – we’ve made a list of some you might enjoy.
If you’d like to fundraise for the Trust, email to let us know you have signed up for an event and we can provide a running vest and support with your fundraising. For own-place entries there's no minimum sponsorship requirement and every pound you raise helps to protect, enhance and connect people with wild places – why not set yourself a challenge?
