Action Challenge
Action Challenge has developed & delivered some of the most successful, innovative, and professionally operated mass participation fundraising events.
Ultra Challenge Series enables 000’s of adventurers to take on 100km, 50km or 25km as a walk or run around some of the most beautiful areas of the UK – and to achieve something that many thought they could never do!
Action Challenge also offer global adventures to the Himalayas, Africa, The Americas, Iceland, China – amazing backdrops for real adventures. Add some testing trails & routes, perhaps altitude & ice, or maybe sun & sand – and now it’s a challenge! Then get a group of 20 or so like minded folk together – lay on top quality support including a UK Leader, a Medic, and the best local logistics team – and you have an Action Challenge trip!

In partnership with Action Challenge we offer a variety of ways to pay for your challenge and raise vital funds for Combat Stress.
SIGN UP & FUNDRAISING OPTIONS:
1. Charity Sponsorship – you pay a small registration fee, do lots of fundraising and we cover the cost of your event place!
2. Mixed Funding – pay half of the event place cost yourself, fundraise a bit less and we pay the balance of the event place cost.
3. Self Fund – you pay the full cost of the event place - fundraise whatever you want, with no set target or deadline, and there’s no cost at all to the charity!
N.B – If Combat Stress is paying towards the cost of your place, you will need to have raised 50% of your sponsorship target 6 weeks before the event to confirm your place. We have loads of fundraising tips and support to help you smash your target so please get in contact. The remaining 50% can be sent in up to four weeks after you’ve completed the challenge.
