We are Action Challenge and we specialise in mass participation challenges and events across the UK and internationally. Every year in the UK alone we see over 25,000 participants take on a walk, trek or run with us and help to raise over £5 million for UK charities each year through our challenges.
If you are a charity and not yet registered to work with us in 2019, please email us at charity@actionchallenge.com to find out how you can get involved on our treks and challenges. We work with charities at varying levels across our events and have put together the below guide to help you decide which is best suited to your charity.
We have 12 huge challenges in store for 2020 that make up our iconic 'Ultra Challenge Series' - we saw over 25,000 participants take on these challenges in 2019 and we anticipate nearly 30,000 will take part next year - each challenge offers a 100km, 50km or 25km route and participant's can walk, jog or run the route.
We offer unrivaled support and hospitality to both our participants and charities who come along to support their fundraisers - we provide fully signposted routes, rest stops every 12-15km with snacks and hot drinks, water replenishment stations, self-help and First Aid tents, St John Ambulance crew and our fantastic Trek Masters who can be found along the route to lend a helping hand to our challengers.
Charities can register to become a Listed Charity or a Challenge Partner on these events, depending on the level of involvement the charity would like. You can find out all about the challenges by visiting our brand new Ultra website here >> https://www.ultrachallenge.com/.

With flexible payment options and three ways to fundraise, we provide a fully supported experience for each individual, and have to date helped participants raise over £70 million for UK charities.
