Challenge & running events

From bike rides to skydives, marathons to mountain climbs; there are so many ways to support Hft and raise money for people with learning disabilities while taking part in an exciting personal challenge.

We can give you the opportunity to get involved in some world-famous events and challenges, such as the London Marathon or climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.

Hft has places on some of the biggest and best long-distance running events; meaning we can guarantee a place in return for your fundraising support. We also offer events such as a walk along the length of Hadrian’s Wall or the Three Peaks Challenge for those who prefer walking to running. 

Adrenaline junkies will love our skydive jumps, which you can take part in for free in return for raising a certain amount for Hft. We offer tandem skydives, static line jumps and accelerated freefall level 1 certification to suit.

Fancy something a little more far-flung? Then our overseas challenges are for you. From pan-European cycles to treks across some of the world’s famous landmarks; there’s bound to be an organised event to appeal to every adventurer.

If you’re looking for a fun-packed and challenging weekend which might include abseiling, caving, shooting, waterfall climbing, horseriding and rock climbing then our Multi-Activity Weekends are for you. They’re great for both groups and individuals.

Already registered for an event but keen to raise money for Hft? Just let us know and we’ll send you our support pack including fundraising tips, motivation techniques and a t-shirt.
