Most of the St Clare Hospice challenge events are designed to be accessible to people of varying fitness levels. Some events may require specific training or preparation, and this will be outlined.

Consider your fitness level, interests, availability and fundraising goals. If you’re unsure, our team will be happy to help you find a challenge that’s right for you.

The level of fitness required depends on the challenge. We recommend following any training guidance provided and preparing appropriately for your chosen event. 

Age requirements vary depending on the event. Please review the age restrictions and participation criteria on the webpage for the event you are interested in.

Fundraising for St Clare Hospice

Many of our challenge events have a fundraising target, but requirements vary. Please refer to the specific event details for information about fundraising commitments.

Yes. We provide fundraising advice, resources and support throughout your journey to help you reach your target and make the most of your challenge.

St Clare Hospice purchases charity places in a range of challenge events. To help cover the cost of your place and raise vital funds for our care, we ask participants with a St Clare Hospice charity place to commit to a minimum fundraising target. If you secure your own place in an event, there is no minimum fundraising requirement, and we simply encourage you to raise as much as you can to support St Clare Hospice.

If you’re taking part with your own event place or organising your own challenge, there’s no minimum fundraising commitment. We encourage you to set a target that feels achievable for you, and any funds you raise will make a real difference to the patients and families supported by St Clare Hospice. 

If you’re collecting money on an Enthuse page or JustGiving page, there’s nothing you need to do – your sponsorship comes directly to us. 

If you have collected any cash, you can bank it and pay it in using one of these options: 

  • Pay the donations directly onto your Enthuse page, if you have one.

  • Call Sarah Piercy on 01279 773732 or email sarah.piercy@stclarehospice.org.uk for support with St Clare Hospice’s bank details.
