“I found the Action Challenge Events are a perfect way to get starting into ‘Ultra Distance’ running or walking. It was very well organised, with loads of encouragement and support along the way. I took on two events to raise money for The British Liver Trust and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. My family and friends think I am crazy for taking on such distances, so were more than happy to support my fundraising cause” – Ben

Charity Travel and Trek - UK Charity Challenges
With the uncertainty over travelling overseas, our challenge partner Charity Travel and Trek have organised some UK based challenges in some great locations – you don’t have to get on a plane to discover somewhere beautiful!
Take on this challenging and ‘bracing’ 15 – 16 mile circular route around the exposed Edale Moor in the Peak District, which begins and ends in the village of Edale. Most of the ascent for this challenge is in the early stages, and once up high, it is exposed to the elements for much of the rest of the day. The views are great and the route includes Jacob’s Ladder and Kinder Scout (waterfalls).
Self Fund – £35 per person, raise as much as you can for the British Liver Trust.
Sponsored – £10 + £50 min fundraising target.
It’s a wonderful experience seeing the sunrise in the east over Snowdonia, and what better place to be than the summit of Snowdon itself. You could be walking up under a blanket of stars, or in the mist(!) such is this challenge! Snowdon’s weather is unpredictable and may certainly add to the challenge.
Self Fund – £125 per person. £25 deposit + £100 balance 4 weeks prior to departure. Raise as much as you can for the British Liver Trust.
Sponsored – £25 deposit + £200 min fundraising target. Target to be reached 4 weeks prior to departure.
Cycle, climb and canoe Snowdon Challenge
Take on this great 3-in-1 challenge as you cycle out from the start (approx 1 hr ride, primarily off-road), switch to feet for the climb of Snowdon (up the Ranger route, down the Watkins) before getting aboard the canoes to paddle a circuit of Llyn Dinas. The transitions are seamless (no vehicle transfers) so it might feel like a triathlon, but it’s NOT a race! You will be led all the way with safety personnel accompanying you.
April, June and July 2021.
