The 2.6 Challenge launches this Sunday – when the London Marathon was meant to take place – and with Scope now more in need of your support than ever, we're inviting you, your families and your friends to take part on our behalf.
What's it all about?
The 2.6 Challenge aims to raise £67 million for UK charities like Scope who are working tirelessly to support disabled people during this crisis. Inspired by the distance of a marathon, 26.2 miles, people are choosing their own challenges based on the numbers 2.6 or 26 and raising money for their favourite charities.
How do I take part?
1. Dream up your 2.6 challenge – or use one of the great ideas below!
2. Visit The 2.6 Challenge website to make a donation to Scope as you prepare to complete your challenge – or even better, set up a JustGiving fundraising page so others can contribute as well.
3. Spread the word and encourage friends and family to support your fundraising – and make their own donation to Scope.
4. Complete your challenge.
5. Share a photo or video of your challenge here on the community or on social media. Use #TwoPointSixChallenge, #TeamScope and @Scope so we can see your awesome challenge in action!
Good luck!
