27 January 2023

Our world needs us now more than ever. We’re in a race against time to restore nature – and we need your help to win.

If you’re looking for a challenge this year, you can get fit and support WWF’s vital conservation work by signing up for one of our fantastic fundraising challenges.

Whether it’s running your first 10k, taking the plunge in an open-water swim or pedalling your way to a personal best, there’s a challenge for everybody – simply pick an activity, distance and pace to suit you. And with a whole host of events happening across the UK, you can either find a challenge near you or look for an adventure in another part of the country.

Come on, Team Panda! Whether you want to run a marathon or walk a more leisurely route, there are WWF fundraising activities to suit every ability

Will you trek the spectacular Jurassic coast, take a splash in Hyde Park or run past Edinburgh’s iconic landmarks? Whichever challenge you decide to tackle, it’ll be an unforgettable experience that’s good for you and the planet.

From the moment you sign up, we’re with you every step of the way. You’ll receive a fundraising pack filled with tips on reaching your fundraising goal and your very own ‘race to save our world’ T-shirt, plus access to our exclusive training hub and Facebook group to help you prepare for the big day.
