Push yourself further for local families

Looking for your next big challenge? Whether you’re an experienced trekker, keen walker, enthusiastic jogger or simply want to achieve something extraordinary, an Ultra Challenge could be the perfect event for you.

Ultra Challenge events take place in some of the UK’s most spectacular locations, giving you the chance to walk, jog or run incredible routes while raising vital funds for Shooting Star Children’s Hospices.

With a range of distances available on most events, including 10km, 25km, 50km, 75km and 100km options, there’s a challenge to suit everyone. You can take part as an individual, with friends, family or colleagues, and choose the distance that matches your goals.

Every step you take and every pound you raise will help Shooting Star Children’s Hospices provide specialist care and support to babies, children and young people with life-limiting conditions, and their families, across south-west London, north-west London and Surrey.

When you join #TeamShootingStar, we’ll support you every step of the way with fundraising advice, resources and encouragement to help you reach your target and cross that finish line.
