Challenge events

Challenge events are about ordinary people achieving extraordinary things. What better way to see the world, meet new people and experience different cultures whilst raising much-needed funds for Womankind’s work.

Be inspired

Sue and Glenys by trekking to Machu Picchu in aid of WomankindWould a cycle challenge from London to Paris inspire you? This long-weekend challenge takes you through historic towns, sleepy villages and rolling countryside. Or perhaps you would prefer something even more challenging, and trek the Inca Trail. It boasts striking beauty, ancient Inca ruins and diverse ecological zones.

Sue and Glenys, marked a milestone birthday by taking part in an Inca Trail Trek to Machu Picchu in aid of Womankind. They raised almost £5,000 for Womankind through sponsorship.
