What is the challenge?

Macmillan's 24 Hour Challenge takes place this October. You can walk, dance, game or cycle for 24 hours straight. Go solo or team up with friends, family or co-workers to take on the challenge. Whatever you do, you are raising vital funds to support people living with cancer.

When does the challenge start?

You can choose to take on your challenge any day between Friday 25 and Thursday 31 October.

Do I need to have a certain level of fitness?

This challenge is built to be inclusive, and you can adapt the challenge to suit your abilities. This means taking part at your own pace, whether you take on 1 hour, 5 hours or the full 24 hours. We also advise seeking guidance from your GP if you have any concerns.

Do I need to provide evidence that I've done the challenge?

No, however we do love to see your photos. So make sure to share them on our Facebook group or tag us @MacmillanCancer.

Can I take part if I am under age 18?

Yes, people under age 18 can take part in the challenge. However, we need your parent or guardian to contact us first. They can call us on 0300 1000 200 (Monday to Friday 9am-5pm). If you are under age 18 you should not register your own details. The Facebook group is strictly for supporters over the age of 18.
