Challenge your Team

We believe in the power of challenges as a catalyst for change and growth. Connections made and developed provide a powerful platform and the opportunity for groups to become friends and become long term supporters of raising substantial funds for charities. As well as strengthening freindships we believe health and well-being is enhanced both on a physical and mental level for the future!

While undertaking a challenge people’s confidence is boosted while they leave behind their busy lives and connect with nature and the challenge ahead. Our speciality is mountain adventure and cross border challenges but we also love the coastline and ever changing sea.

Everyone has the right to dream and with the right support and hard work fulfill their dream.

We can run bespoke trips for groups of four or more people on most of the trips and challenges offered. Whether you are a group of colleagues with your own justgiving pages for different charities raising money for different charities or other we would love to help. Raising money for a good cause is really close to our hearts and makes it so much more than just a trek! Our ground operations team has helped raise thousands over the last few years and find it intensely rewarding!

Finding your challenge

Open Challenges for fundraisers, businesses and groups

Our team manages these challenges from start to finish with itinerary or event design, participant support and pre-event briefing, event delivery and followup with yourselves. We can also offer a presentation by zoom or other on the trip for your participants offering the chance for any questions to be answered.  All you need to do is promote the selected challenge event/s you wish to market to your supporters and support them with their fundraising. It’s the ideal way to test a select number of challenge events to see which event/s work best for your charity.

We have many  open challenges available for groups. These challenges are all designed and ground-operated by us to support your fundraising of which your supporters can join as either a self-funded or on a minimum sponsorship package (which would be approved by you). Any individual or group of individuals over the age of 18 can participate and fundraise for a UK registered charity. From the moment you arrive, we will organise everything and can produce certificates for participants. Any individual (over the age of 18) can participate and fundraise for a UK registered charity. Our team manages these challenges from design to delivery and debrief. All you need to do is promote the challenge(s) across your marketing channels to recruit the participants and highlight the opportunity across your supporter network. Usually we ask the participants to book through you and then receive the per head fee. Usually we will have a meeting or zoom to look at how things will work with set up fee, registration fee, minimum sponsorship and schedule etc. We try to be flexible in the way we work so if you have a usual way of doing things we are happy to work with you!

Bespoke Challenges for charities and how does it work?

 A bespoke trip is also known as a tailor-made or private group tour. Basically what this means is that you come to us with your ideas for a trip and we help you turn those ideas into an actual itinerary or you can select from our programme of established challenges. You may know exactly what you want and you just need us to organise it for you or you may not have any idea what you want and need help working it out. An overseas challenge or UK event can be tweaked and tailored to meet your objectives and recruit the targeted audience of participants. You have complete control over the itinerary and can choose the destination, duration, activities involved, type of accommodation and even how many meals are included. We will of course offer our expert guidance on the best options available to you, but ultimately you get to choose exactly what you want! Bespoke challenges are events that are run specifically for your charity, tailored to your unique requirements and end-goals. We are able to arrange for your trip or charity challenge to include some time assisting at or visiting a project in the destination country if this is of interest. We can host your event on our website displaying your charity logo, use your tone of voice and add additional messaging and T&C’s that you require. You can of course host it on your own web-page (usual), we can supply you with images and video content to help with website engagement and marketing activities as well.

All you will need to do is to promote the challenge to your supporters. Through our large tour operator partners we have ground-operated many trips for charities on The Freedom Trail and have received 5* AITO ratings for this trip for our partners. So just get in touch and we can put a trip style together for you that suits your time frame, departure dates, budget and itinerary. We offer competitive prices which are flexible depending on your requirements. Together we can create an event or series of events and play a pivotal role throughout the entire event cycle to ensure its success at each participant and your fundraising.
