There are challenges of all types in all locations ready for you to get involved in, here are a few we have highlighted across the UK to get your inspiration flowing. You can take a look at previous fundraisers’ stories too.
Tandem skydiving
Feel the full force of flying through the clouds from over 10,000ft at up to 125mph! A truly unforgettable experience. The tandem skydive is the most popular of all skydives – perfect for the newbie adrenaline junkie, as you’ll be strapped to a fully qualified instructor who does all the work, leaving you to enjoy the view. You can book to do a tandem on your own or with a group of friends at Skyline Skydiving’s 19 airfields across the UK are open all year round.

Wing-walking
A wing walking experience is one of life's greatest aerial adventures, standing and safely strapped to the top of a plane as you ride through the air at exciting heights, under the guidance of professional air-display teams.

Tough Mudder
The Tough Mudder is not your typical run. Packed with famous teamwork-inspired obstacles, it is a fast-paced, team-orientated challenge sure to test you and your friends. You can choose between distances of 5k, 10k and 15k, as well as a 1-mile challenge for children, in locations across the UK. Click here to see the options currently available.
