Tackle the distance of Mount Kilimanjaro without leaving the UK

Your Challenge — Your Way!

Step into adventure with our virtual Kilimanjaro challenge and tackle the 62k distance of Mount Kilimanjaro without leaving the UK!  The Kilimanjaro Virtual Challenge is your chance to walk, run, cycle, hike, swim, or even climb the equivalent distance to the summit of this iconic mountain. 

There is a £7.99 registration fee, but there’s no fundraising target for this challenge. Simply raise as much as you can. However, those who raise £300 or more will get a free hoodie.  By getting involved and raising vital funds, you’ll be helping us to give life-changing support to thousands of women and families facing unexpected pregnancy or pregnancy loss in the UK.

At some of the most difficult and critical times in a woman’s life, we step in with real, practical help. From a secure and safe home, and essential baby supplies to emotional and professional support, Life walks alongside women and families when they need it most. 

How does the challenge work? 

  • Sign up for the challenge with Elite Adventures and download our handy pack. 
  • Our team will send your Life T-shirt to you and support your throughout. 
  • Decide how you’d like to complete the challenge and track your progress. You can cover the miles by walking, running or cycling. 
  • Once complete, you’ll get a well-deserved medal and a great big thank you! 

 

This challenge can be done on your own, as a team or as a family 

 If you’re looking to get out in nature this year, this challenge is perfect for all ages and group sizes. You can take as long as you need to complete it, in any way that makes it fun for you. Whether it’s walk, cycle or swim the distance, how you complete this challenge is up to you.  You could even decide to do all three methods to mix it up! 

 As an extra special treat for the kids, we’ve created a bespoke challenge pack filled with fun games, interesting facts and even a step-by-step mile tracker to keep everyone motivated. At the end, you’ll get a medal to show off to all your friends and family for your amazing achievement.

Share your adventure

We want to support you along your fundraising journey. Let us know you are taking on the challenge by contacting Laura at fundraising@lifecharity.org.uk or tag @lifecharityuk on Facebook, and Instagram. Share with your supporters how many miles up the mountain you are to keep raising funds, and most importantly, encouragement from friends and family to keep going! 

Let us know once you’ve completed your challenge, we would love to give you a shout-out on our social media channels and in our monthly newsletter.
