Take on a challenge
Taking on a personal challenge is a brilliant way to raise funds and get others talking about the fight for a fairer, fossil-free future.
You don’t need to be an athlete. If it moves you (literally or emotionally), it counts.

“Raising awareness is good, but pulling up your sleeves and doing something about it is amazing.
Together, with Friends of the Earth Scotland, our voice is louder, our actions more significant, and our impact greater”.
– Hugh, who raised £1,200 doing 447 backflips!
Your sponsored challenge can reflect the kind of world we’re fighting for – one where we care for nature, act with purpose, and bring people together.
Try something like:
Run a race or sign up for your local Kiltwalk
Do a daily litter pick for 30 days
Swim in open water every day for a month
Hike 5 Munros in 5 weekends
Cycle from coast to coast and document the journey
Go car-free or plant-based for 30 days
If it makes people smile, ask questions, or want to get involved, you’re onto something.
