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.

Save the Family provides caring residential support for vulnerable and homeless families. Our site situated on the outskirts of Chester consists of 26 self-contained family homes; the families we support live in a community environment, staffed 24 hours a day. The families we work with often face an array of challenges, including family breakdown, domestic abuse, addiction, debt, and mental illnesses.We provide a team of skilled Children and Family mentors to engage and support the whole family to work through various challenges that prevent families from living successfully independently. Our purpose is to keep families together where possible and reintegrate them back into a community when they feel equipped and included, ready to carve out a brighter and more sustainable future, with increased aspirations and opportunities. We work alongside partner agencies to ensure a coordinated approach is implemented to support the individual or family's needs and that an appropriate package of support is developed and delivered with a clear action plan in place. Together with our partners we deliver finance workshops, teach life skills, and signpost individuals to support services. Furthermore, while working with individuals that have a history of abusive relationships, our mentors will support the residents through The Gateway Programme. Save the Family is committed to giving each child that engages with our service the maximum opportunities that it can, to ensure that they reach their full potential and that this is achieved in a safe and secure environment. Our Children's Mentors deliver a programme of innovative activities throughout the year for our children. They work alongside the children to provide support and guidance through this extremely difficult time.

Schoolreaders is a charity which helps to improve children's literacy by providing volunteers to listen to children read in primary schools. 1 in 4 primary school children in England fail to reach the expected standard of reading when leaving primary school. These children are unable to fully access their secondary education, which has lifelong negative consequences. Poor literacy will have a negative impact on children's life chances and limit their future opportunities. Schoolreaders recruits, places and supports volunteers to go into a local primary school to give children one-to-one reading support on a weekly basis. Our unique mapping system underpins our volunteer recruitment and placement process, ensuring children in the most deprived communities are prioritised. Please note, whilst Schoolreaders is happy to support most fundraising events and activities, the charity does not endorse people to take part in dangerous activities such as parachute jumps, sky-diving or bungee jumps, nor are able to recommend companies who undertake such activities.

To provide relief from the effects of bereavement to young people who have suffered the loss of a parent who served with the Armed Forces of the Crown. When a parent dies, the impact on their child is significant. When that parent served in the Armed Forces, the impact is even greater with children often feeling they’ve lost their connection to the military community. Scotty’s Little Soldiers prevents that. Together, we can ensure the very best bereavement support remains available.

Send a Cow is a force for change in rural Africa. We help people grow their own futures – on their own land, on their own terms. Every day families face poverty that is extreme, cruel, and worst of all – unnecessary. But rural Africa is rich with opportunity and where there is land, there is hope. Send a Cow doesn’t impose solutions, we help grow them from within. That’s why they work. Our African-designed solutions were developed with, and for, the communities we support. Families get back the skills and confidence they need to get the most from their land. Families can grow enough food, earn a living and go after their dreams. And because the families we work with pass on what they know, success quickly multiplies, from family to family, community to community, generation to generation. Working across six African countries, we speak many languages. But in all of them, Send a Cow has come to mean a better future.
