Create your own challenge
Get active in a way that suits you by creating your own challenge.
Perhaps you just want to get fit. Maybe you'd like to pick up a skill. Or maybe you'd like to do some good for yourself while you're fundraising for Shine.
Whatever your why, our Fundraising Team will be here to support you throughout your challenge. And we have lots of ideas to get you inspired...
Active Challenges
- Fitness Challenge: Whether you choose 30 days of yoga, so many planks everyday, 100 squats a day, so many rounds of golf, or simply moving everyday. Whatever your fitness challenge, you can fundraise for Shine.
- Swimming Challenge: Challenge yourself to complete a distance over a time period - 1k in a day, 5k in a week, 10k in a month, the choice is yours! You can take part in your local pool or suitable wild swimming spot.
- Running Challenge: Want to get running but committing to a running event seems a bit daunting? Challenge yourself to start running with an easy-start programme. Apps like Couchto5k are a great place to start!
- Steps or distance challenge: Whether you challenge yourself to 10,000 steps a day for a week, 10 miles in a week or 40km in a month, whatever your fitness ability, come up with your own challenge to walk or wheel and fundraise for Shine.
- Plan a sponsored walk: Choose your route, pick a day and invite your friends and family to take part. Plan your own sponsored walk to support of Shine and we can support you throughout the process, providing you with sponsor forms, literature and all the assistance you need to help you raise as much as possible.
Personal Challenges
- Learn a new language: Set yourself 30 days to master the basics of a new language, or challenge yourself to complete a Duolingo module. However you do it, keep yourself accountable with a personal challenge.
- Pick up a new skill: Pottery, darts, gardening, whatever it is you can make it into a personal challenge.
- Add a new habit or stop an old one: Keep yourself accountable by setting yourself a challenge to change for the better.
