Overseas Challenges

Join a Challenge, broaden your horizons, and push yourself further!

Do you want the adventure of a lifetime, whilst raising vital funds to support young homeless people? Then look no further. Backup North West have joined forces with Action Challenge to provide you with once in a lifetime adventures.

Action Challenge provide amazing adventures all over the world, from Everest Base Camp, to the Sahara Dessert, to the Great Wall of China or over to the Grand Canyon. Action Challenge have you covered!

So how does it work?

All you have to do is visit Action Challenge and choose your adventure with them. You will need to pay a deposit to secure your place, then you can decide how you want to pay and fundraise.

Action Challenge will take care of all aspects of your trip and Backup will be here to provide you with fundraising support. The Overseas Challenges are operated to the highest standards, with the best local logistics teams, and our own UK mountain leader ensuring all runs to plan & a qualified expedition medic to oversee the group’s wellbeing.

What are the costs?

An online Registration Deposit is required to secure your place on this challenge. Once registered, there are 3 payment options available to cover the remaining cost of your trip.

SELF FUNDING:

You pay the registration deposit, and then the full final balance directly to Action Challenge. You can then raise any amount of sponsorship you would like for Backup North West.  

CHARITY SPONSORSHIP:

You pay the registration deposit & fundraise twice the amount of the final balance.

Backup will pay Action Challenge the final balance from this fundraising and then the remaining amount will go to Backup.

MIXED FUNDING:

A bit of both. You pay the deposit and split the final balance with Backup.

You will need to fundraise twice the amount that Backup is due to pay.
