#THEBROADSWALKCHALLENGE
GET BACK TO NATURE
EXPLORE THE BROADS
The Broads Walk Challenge offers the perfect location for one of the best river walks in the UK. This National Park is beautiful with a unique habitat, offering fantastic wildlife and beautiful country views. It has quiet country lanes, well-maintained tracks, paths and nature trails such as the Weavers Way. You will find yourself trekking through gently rolling countryside following the winding rivers and waterways as they make their way out to sea.
If you want to fundraise for a special cause - then be part of this exciting event. It will be genuinely tough but totally achievable for all levels of experience. Your friends, family and colleagues will recognise the scale of your challenge, and should generously support you with their sponsorship! You can walk, jog or even run, on your own on in a team. For more detail download the The Broads Walk 2020 brochure or view gallery.

HOW IT WORKS
-
Participants register via our website and pay a registration fee to reserve their place.
-
They select a charity from the drop-down list or add a new charity - they must pledge to fundraising a minimum amount of money for you depending on their distance.
-
They must raise 50% of this fundraising for you, 6 weeks prior to the event.
-
At this stage, we send the charity your full list of participants and you check they’ve fundraised 50%. If they haven’t, you can choose to remove them from the event and not be invoiced for their place - you will then be invoiced for the participants you’ve confirmed 5 weeks prior to the event.
-
The participants should then get the remaining amount of fundraising to you no later than 4 weeks after the challenge.
-
Your charity is guaranteed the following minimum fundraising per person - £236 (90km), £201 (50km), £96 (25km) - if they raise any extra, this goes entirely to your charity too.
