Take on an active challenge

You don’t have to be a marathon runner to take on an active challenge! Whatever your fitness or ability level, there’s a challenge to suit you.

However you choose to fundraise, you’ll be supporting life-changing neuroscience and mental health, and cancer research at Cardiff University. Wherever you are in the world, there are organised events you can join and fundraise as part of #TeamCardiff.

Set your own challenge

If pre-organised events don’t appeal, you can design your own challenge. Why not plan a challenge like the Welsh 3 Peaks, hiking Offa’s Dyke, or cycling Land's End to John o' Groats? Whatever you choose, our team is on hand to help you get your challenge off the starting blocks.

If you prefer something more manageable, why not ‘Choose your Challenge’ and set your own targets and fundraise in a way that suits you?

Join a virtual event

Can't get to the event but want to join the fun? Some organised events offer a virtual option which means you can take part wherever you may be. Find virtual events.
