Charity challenge places are available now!

Your 2022 charity challenge places are available now!

We have just released our charity challenge places and this year we have places for you in;

• 29th May 2022 - The Edinburgh Marathon Festival 2022 - run in one of the most beautiful cities in the world

• 23rd - 24th July 2022 - The Yorkshire Challenge 2022 –choose from the full 100km, 50km or even a 25km route option!

• 11th September 2022 - The Great North Run - the worlds greatest half marathon

There will be more events added throughout the year so please keep an eye on our challenge events page. You will find several places in each event so you can join by yourself or with a bigger team. 

These challenges provide a great way to test yourself while raising much needed funds for the children of Open Arms. Your place is free or can be self funded, all we ask is that you commit to fundraising a minimum target which you can see detailed on the event pages.  

Want to join our team?

Here are just some of the reasons that other people have taken part;

Open to all – the events we have places in have been chosen because with some training and plenty of enthusiasm anyone of reasonable fitness can take part.

Supporting Open Arms – as a small charity we rely on our supporters for all that we do. Every single person makes a difference to what we can achieve.  By taking part with us you will be making a tangible difference to the lives of vulnerable children and we will show you the difference you are making.

Meeting new people – through your training and the support that you will receive from us you will meet and get to know new people that will inspire and support you all the way!

Something to focus on – how often do you set yourself a goal and stick to it?  Now is your chance to commit to something and help others.  Get involved.  Declare it to the world.  We’d love to have you on our team!

The thrill of achieving something, as well as the spectacular atmosphere of the event will stay with you for a long time, and the money you raise will transform the lives of children in Malawi.

We can’t do what we do without your help, so whether you want to take part in an event that we have places in or raise money through a different one, challenge events are a fantastic way to do it and we will support you all the way.
