This year, we’re coming together to go the distance for Syrian communities.
We’ve set a collective target to cover 2,026 kilometres by 31 December 2026 — all in support of Syrian communities as they rebuild after years of conflict and displacement. We know it’s ambitious, but together, we believe it’s possible. Whether it’s a few walks each week or a marathon, every kilometre counts.Â
Challenge yourself, and let every step become a stride towards doing good. It’s a great way to stay motivated and make a positive difference to Action Syria’s medical care and education projects.
We’ll be right here cheering you on, and with our fundraising toolkit, fundraising has never been simpler. We’ve also set up a JustGiving campaign page so that you can link your amazing contribution to the overall target, and see the difference we are making together. Our toolkit has a step–by–step guide on setting this up.
Whether you want to take on a 10km walk in your local area or a trek to higher altitudes, Action Syria Challenges has something for everyone. We’ve got a whole host of challenges you can get involved in.
For a challenge you can easily fit into your busy day-to-day, take part in our seasonal challenges, for all ages and fitness levels.
If you're considering signing up for a race, or you've already secured a place, why not make every step count by using your run to fundraise for Action Syria?
We’ve teamed up with Ultra Challenge to give you access to a range of trek and trail run events across the country.
In May 2025, our incredible supporter Neda ran the Great Birmingham Run and chose to turn it into a fundraiser in memory of her friend. We are so proud that Neda raised a magnificent £734 for Action Syria.
Do you want to support Action Syria but are not so keen on participating in a challenge event? Take a look at the other ways you can get involved and make a difference for Syrian communities.
