London2Brighton Challenge

Choose your challenge

There are 16 stunning routes to choose from – don’t forget to select Born Free as your chosen charity when you register* and make a lasting impact.

You can opt for one of three registration options:

• Charity Sponsorship - you pay a small registration fee, do lots of fundraising and we cover the cost of your event place
• Mixed Funding - pay half of the event place cost yourself, fundraise a bit less and we pay the balance of the event place cost
• Self-Funded – 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!

* Please note, there is a cost to Born Free when you sign up, so we kindly ask for your commitment to reaching the fundraising target. This ensures that the maximum amount of your sponsorship goes directly to supporting our vital work for wild animals in need.
