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.

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.

Suzy Lamplugh Trust is the UK’s pioneering personal safety charity and leading stalking authority. It was established in 1986, following the disappearance of 25-year-old Suzy Lamplugh, an estate agent who went missing when viewing a property with a client in West London and never returned. Suzy was never found, her killer never brought to justice, was missing and assumed murdered for seven years, before she was eventually declared dead after 1993. The Trust was set up 6 months after Suzy’s disappearance by her late parents, Diana and Paul Lamplugh to ensure what happened to Suzy doesn’t happen to others. Three decades later, we are widely regarded as field experts in lone-working and personal safety training, stalking training and consultancy, campaigning and support services, ensuring their dream lives on. The organisation therefore continues to work towards reducing the risk of violence and aggression by educating, campaigning and supporting people to take steps to avoid, mitigate or manage risks at work, as well as across all aspects of their lives. Our vision is a society in which people are safer and feel safer from violence and aggression, so they can live life to the full. Suzy Lamplugh Trust reaches across the public, private and voluntary sectors through its education and training provision. Our expert trainers deliver hundreds of sessions across the UK and Ireland each year, working with local authorities, the housing sector, higher education, transport, the NHS, construction, legal and probation services to name a few. We trained 5000 delegates last year, with courses designed to drive behavioural change, so that common sense in personal safety becomes common practice. Our training helps staff minimise and mitigate risks they face at work, so that they become confident in managing their own personal safety. Through our consultancy provisions we also help organisations review, amend or create risk assessment and personal safety policies. CAMPAIGN WORK At Suzy Lamplugh Trust we campaign heavily to raise greater awareness of personal safety and stalking issues, demand systematic change where needed, influence public policy and promote a society in which people are safer and feel safer. Our longest running campaign has been the licensing of the operators and drivers of minicabs and private hire vehicles. It begun back in 1998, because every year hundreds of crimes, including many rapes and sexual assaults are linked to illegal and unlicensed minicab drivers. We were delighted when the government pledged to legislate on national minimum standards for taxi and private hire vehicle licensing and establish a national licensing database; recommendations that were included in our own research report launched in 2018 titled “Steering Towards Safety in Taxi and Private Hire licensing”. We have also over the years produced a number of stalking research reports, and successfully campaigned for a stalking protection bill in 2018 to introduce Stalking Protection Orders. We manage the Multi Agency Stalking Intervention Programme (MASIP) funded by the Police Transformation Fund, an initiative that is the first of its kind worldwide and aims to improve responses to stalking across the criminal justice system and the health sector through rehabilitative treatment for stalkers. Suzy Lamplugh Trust has a long history of working within the stalking and harassment sector. Diana Lamplugh believed, and indeed the evidence suggests, that Suzy may have been targeted by a predatory stalker. Diana subsequently campaigned heavily during the 90’s for harassment legislation as a number of other high-profile stalking cases came to light. Working in conjunction with many stalking victims and services, the Suzy Lamplugh Trust campaigning and policy work has been pivotal to changes in legislation and practice nationally – including in the introduction of the Protection from Harassment Act 1997, the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012, and the upcoming stalking protection orders. SUPPORT There are many examples of how we provide support to, and help people stay safe from harassment, violence and aggression. One of the most impactful examples is Suzy Lamplugh Trust’s National Stalking Helpline. The service begun in 2010 to provide support, advice and advocacy to victims of stalking, helping them regain control of their lives. It is worth remembering that stalking is a crime that includes, under its overarching umbrella many other crimes, including domestic abuse, sexual violence and homicide. The service has since helped over 30,000 victims through phone and email contact. Paralleled to this and on behalf of victims who are at serious risk of harm, we regularly represent serious cases to local police forces through our advocacy work, driving prompt action when required. Stalking is a pattern of fixated and obsessive behaviour which is intrusive and causes fear of violence or engenders alarm and distress in the victim. It is one of the most common forms of interpersonal violence in the UK: 1 in 5 women and 1 in 10 men will be a victim of stalking in their lives (UK government statistics), making stalking as pervasive as domestic abuse. According to the ONS, this equates to 4.9% of women and 2.4% of men in any given year. However, with stalking, unless a stalker dies, most victims are living through an active crime, trying to cope with and recover while it continues (many stalkers continue to stalk their victims after multiple court interventions, from prison and often with greater determination after release). This insidious crime results in significant adverse impact on the mental health and wellbeing of victims, who are incredibly vulnerable, as well as on their physical, emotional, financial and psychological wellbeing, causing feelings of fear and being unsafe (especially in female victims). Criminologists have found stalking behaviours in over 9 out of 10 murder cases (of women, by men). It is also a gendered crime: 77% of victims are female; 74% of perpetrators are male (Helpline data). In 25% of cases the stalker targets the victim’s children, in 33% of cases family and friends of the victim are also stalked and in 20% of cases the work colleagues of the victim are also contacted. Therefore, on average, 21 other individuals are directly affected in each case. Despite all successful outcomes achieved by the National Stalking Helpline, the significant number of calls that get through to the helpline only make up circa 40% of victims who try to contact us and regretfully, the remaining 60% do not get through. This is the reason why this small, yet dedicated organisation is always looking for new ways to raise funds to sustain its current service levels, whilst also trying to grow the provision to address the needs of those vulnerable and bewildered victims, whose pleas to police and health services often result in disheartenment and dejection, leaving them more susceptible and exposed in the face of their controlling and coercive perpetrators.

SwimTayka’s mission is to give disadvantaged communities around the world access to swimming teachers. Teachers that will not only teach them the life skills of swimming, but create a legacy for today’s children, who will grow up and teach future generations. We combine swimming with clean water education, so that we are nurturing a generation of world citizens who will act as environmental stewards who love, care for and respect the life-giving rivers, lakes and oceans along which they live. Drowning is a silent epidemic in which nearly 42 people die every hour. It is at large a preventable death and is the third leading cause of accidental injury death for children worldwide. SwimTayka believes that no child should be denied access to swimming lessons or clean water education, because of their economic status.

Talk Club is a UK male mental health charity. We're here to change the numbers of men because 76% of suicides are male, making suicide the biggest killer of men under 60 with a man dying every 90 minutes. It silently screams that men struggle to prevent poor mental health and find a way to share how they really feel. It's our mission to change this through Talk & Listen, Talk & Exercise and therapy groups that start with asking 'How are you? Out of 10?' By putting a number on how we feel and explaining why, men have a way to open up and measure their mental fitness.
