Act Your Age challenge
This year, we’re asking you to take your age and do something good with it.
Simply take your age, the combined age of your friends, family and workmates, or the age of something or someone special, and turn it into a fundraiser. It could be the distance you cover, the duration you do it for, the number of things you do or your sponsorship target.
With free resources to download, a link to set up your online fundraising page and some inspiring fundraising stories, we’ve got everything you need below.
And if the restrictions this year make it difficult for you to get involved, why not donate your age instead?
