When it comes to adventures and exploring, overseas challenges are a great way to raise funds for Cure Parkinson’s.
Hot or cold, bustling or tranquil, there’s a challenge for everyone. Don’t miss your chance to explore the world and take on the challenge of a lifetime whilst supporting our mission to find a cure for Parkinson’s.
We work closely with Discover Adventure, a leading tour operator for charity fundraising challenges, to offer some amazing international treks.
Our favourite challenges
Below are some of our favourite challenges, however if you wish to tackle a different trek, location or date then email Elizabeth for more information.
When you join a Discover Adventure challenge, there are three different payment options available to offer you both choice and flexibility. We’ve put together a handy guide which explains the options; however don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions.
A registration fee is applicable to all payment options and is non-refundable.
You contribute a set percentage of the trip costs, with the remainder paid by Cure Parkinson’s providing we have received 80% of your fundraising target eight weeks prior to departure. The target is lower than the Fundraising option due to your contribution.
A registration fee is applicable to all payment options and is non-refundable.
You pay the full trip costs directly to Discover Adventure.
You have no fundraising target, just raise as much as you can. 100% of donations will come directly to Cure Parkinson’s.
Airline taxes are paid at the same time and in addition to the trip cost (capped at £250)
Climbing Mount Fuji, Japan’s highest mountain at 3,776 metres, has to have been the most difficult task I have ever undertaken. If it shows even one person that a Parkinson’s diagnosis doesn’t mean the end of everything, it’s been worth it.
