UK challenges

From Lands End to John O’Groats, people are cycling, pushing, swimming, paddling, climbing, hiking, and jumping their way through the UK for VSO. 

For teams or individuals, beginners or experienced athletes, VSO’s UK events are a great way to motivate staff and give them a taste of the great outdoors whilst raising funds to help people living in poverty.

We have extensive experience of running bespoke events, and can provide one-to-one support and guide you on the best options for your staff.

All events can be designed as part of a team planning days or team building activities while helping businesses to fulfil their corporate social responsibility commitments.

We’ve compiled a list of challenges we think you’ll like but there’s so much on offer it’s pretty much limited to your imagination, just get in touch to discuss your ideas events@vso.org.uk
