OUR IMPACT

This is not theoretical. This is already happening.

STEP ONE

READY? HERE'S HOW.

Getting started takes less than 10 minutes. Here's all you need to do.

01

Choose your challenge

Pick from one of our official events - skydive, trek, obstacle course - or set up your own DIY challenge. Browse events below for inspiration.

02

Set up your page

Create your personal fundraising page in minutes. Add your photo, tell your story, and set your target. The more personal it is, the more people will give.

03

Share - a lot

The biggest mistake fundraisers make is not sharing enough. Email, WhatsApp, social - get it out early and keep sharing throughout. Our Social Comms Pack has everything you need.

NOT SURE WHAT TO DO?

Join an official TBCP fundraising event or use them as inspiration to create your own challenge wherever you are.
