We’re thrilled to be part of The 2.6 Challenge- a campaign put together by organisers of some of the biggest mass-participation events, including the London Marathon!!

The premise is easy; take part in a challenge which revolves around the numbers 26 or 2.6 and fundraise or donate to Candlelighters, helping us to support our families through COVID-19.

The challenge can be anything you want! We’ve already heard from lots of supporters who are taking part and the Candlelighters team are raring to go too!

You can find more information and inspiration at twopointsixchallenge.co.uk and create your fundraising page at twopointsixchallenge.justgiving.com/fundraise

See what challenges the Candlelighters Team are taking on and donate on our Just Giving page here.
