Sporting and Challenge Events at NYAS
Join a team of incredible fundraisers taking on a sporting or challenge event to provide life changing support to care experienced children, young people, and adults in vulnerable situations.
We offer places at some incredible events, many of which are sold out to the public. Get active and walk, run, hike, swim or even a bounce on a giant inflatable obstacle course. Simply, choose your event on the NYAS Run For Charity platform, complete the registration form, set up your JustGiving page and get training! Or if you’ve already got your place in an event, you can choose to fundraise for NYAS.

The London Marathon is probably the biggest and most well-known marathon in the UK [...] I decided to fundraise for NYAS as I have been an Independent Visitor (IV) for around three years, and I believe that the work they do is essential.
