The 2.6 Challenge

What's your 2.6?

The COVID-19 pandemic has meant the cancellation of thousands of charity fundraising events and the loss of billions in fundraising income.

In response, the organisers of the biggest mass-participation sports events across the country have come together to create a new campaign to raise vital funds to help to save the UK’s charities.

From Sunday 26 April, join the rest of the UK for The 2.6 Challenge as part of team Ickle Pickles.

The #TwoPointSixChallenge is your chance to be a StayAtHome Hero and raise funds from your living room, bedroom, balcony or garden…everyone can join in!

  • Come up with any activity idea around the numbers 2.6 or 26 that suits your skills. We’re working on some fun ideas to suggest so watch this space but anything goes (within Government social distancing guidelines of course!)
  • Make a donation (£2.60 / £26 / whatever you like) or set up a fundraising page to get support from your family and friends.  Donations or fundraising pages can be set up on Virgin Money Giving here or Just Giving here
  • Ask all your friends and family to sponsor you and challenge them to do their own 2.6 Challenge
  • Complete your challenge
  • Share a photo or video of your challenge on social media with #TwoPointSixChallenge and #icklepickles

Get in touch today with any questions or whacky suggetions - we're all ears!
