Do your own thing
Design your own event
We have many individuals who choose to take part in their own event to support Practical Action. These events can range from marathons to dance-athons, to worldwide cycling challenges!
We will offer support and advice if you choose to take part in your own event, and if you're stuck for ideas on how to support us, we will be happy to discuss any ideas and thoughts.
We will give you:
- Help and support to setup your own fundraising site at www.justgiving.co.uk
- A fundraising pack to get you started
- A Practical Action t-shirt to spread the word when you're out and about training for your event!
- Advice and fundraising support throughout

If you want to challenge yourself and raise money for Practical Action, but don't want to organise everything yourself, why not tackle one of our challenge package events. Our range of events aims to open up a world you may never have known existed, one which is right on your doorstep! Most events are timetabled for weekends, so time taken away from family and friends is kept to a minimum. Read more »
