2024 has been a record-breaking year on the Ultra Challenge Series so far. As of the end of July, our events have raised over £6.5 million for UK charities. This is an incredible result, and with more events to come – including the popular Thames Path Challenge, Thames Bridges and South Coast Challenges – we are anticipating a total of £9 million in fundraising for the 2024 Series.
Of all the events out there, our Ultra Challenge Series delivers one of the best returns on charity investment. Our standard fundraising targets deliver a minimum income ratio of 3:1 (so for every £1 your charity spends on event places, you will receive £2 in unrestricted income). However, so far they have delivered a tremendous ratio of 7:1 for our charity clients!
The majority of charities work with us a Listed Charities. It’s free to become a listed charity, and you will only pay for places AFTER fundraisers have met a minimum amount of income. This means you only pay for participant places once you have the money in the bank – effectively risk free fundraising!
