Compassion can pay entry fees for big regional or national sponsorship events. We do ask you to raise a minimum percentage of the cost from your sponsors, but we will help promote your challenge to Compassion supporters to help you hit your target.
We currently do not have any charity places for 2024, but if you would like to apply for your own place to walk, run or hop in aid of farmed animals, we would be delighted to support you! If you have any questions about getting sponsored please get in touch via our contact form.
