Fundraising Events
Fundraising events can be a fun and rewarding way to raise sponsorship in support of those living with arthritis. Keeping active is one of the ways to help your joints remain healthy and there are many options to chose from, whether you are embarking on a challenge for yourself or on behalf of others affected by the condition.
We are a small team, happy to support your efforts, whether you embark on a solo challenge or as part of a group.
If you are up to a challenge and like to hike, you can choose from a number of organised events, as we’ve partnered with Sky Blue Adventures. You can directly sign up to the event of your choice. Below are two of our most popular treks with our supporters.
- Snowdon Sunrise – You can book the Snowdon Sunrise here.
- Yorkshire Three Peaks – You can book the Yorkshire Three Peaks here.

Whether you’re a first-time runner or a seasoned pro, there is a run for everyone. If you want to run a marathon, whether it be a 5/10k, half or full marathon get in touch with Iza and we can help find the perfect run for you. If you have already secured your own place in an event, then we’d love to have you raise vital funds for Arthritis Action.
