BOXING DAY CHALLENGE 2018 CHELTENHAM’S RETURNS TO RAISE MONEY FOR WINSTON’S WISH


Registration has now opened for the popular Boxing Day Challenge at Cheltenham Racecourse – now in its 10th year! The good people of Gloucestershire are once again invited to join in a Christmassy challenge and burn off some festive calories all in the name of a good cause. Cheerful challengers can choose to either walk, jog, run, trot or gallop the two or four-mile course for charity. And what better way to kick-start Boxing Day morning, than by grabbing a burst of fresh winter air with your nearest and dearest, and getting those endorphins flowing?


This fun and family-friendly challenge, which will be held at Cheltenham’s Racecourse starts at 10:30am on 26th December 2018, is open to all ages and levels of fitness, from children to competitive runners - with dogs more than welcome!


Pre-registration tickets are £9 for adults and £5 for children, which are available to buy in advance from the Winston’s Wish website www.winstonswish.org/boxing-day- challenge. Tickets will also be available to purchase on the day at £12 for adults and £6 for children.


For the first time this year, participants are also being offered the chance to fundraise, should they wish to further support the charity, and to secure a Winston’s Wish t-shirt or running top for keeps. For helpful fundraising tips and tricks, a downloadable pack is also available through the Winston’s Wish website.


Malaney Varaljay-Boyce, Head of Regional Fundraising and Events at Winston’s Wish, said:“With almost 900 people joining us at last year , it’s great to see that the Boxing Day Challenge has become a regular fixture in the diary for the people of Cheltenham and the rest of Gloucestershire. It’s only an hour or so out of people’s mornings, and it’s a wonderful opportunity to come together with others for some fresh air and festive fun during the season of indulgence! We’re exceptionally grateful to Specialist Aviation Services who has sponsored the event this year, meaning that we can continue to put on this great day and raise towards the vital funds we need to support bereaved children.”


The Boxing Day Challenge is an annual event that raises money for Cheltenham-based charity, Winston’s Wish, which helps thousands of bereaved children every year across the UK. Every day in the UK, more than 100 children are bereaved of a parent. The death of a loved one is one of the most traumatic situations a child can face. Through the work of Winston’s Wish, a bereaved child can receive the support they need to make sense of what has happened and begin to learn to live with their loss. The charity relies almost entirely on voluntary donations and needs to raise over £2.5 million every year in order to continue to help as many children and young people as possible.


Winston’s Wish is also looking for volunteers to help out on the day with registration, refreshments and to cheer on the runners. To find out more about volunteering opportunities or to register to take part in the Boxing Day Challenge 2018 visit www.winstonswish.org/boxing-day-challenge. Or email community@winstonswish.org.
