Unfortunately, your place is non-transferable and non-refundable. If you cannot now take part please let us know.

Every participant in a Children’s Hospice South West Challenge Event, no matter what the event is, will receive:

  • Fundraising and training advice
  • Regular contact from the Challenge Events team
  • The opportunity to visit a Children’s Hospice South West hospice
  • Children’s Hospice South West vest or T-shirt. 

For more information on the support available from Children’s Hospice South West, have a look at our fundraising page.

CHSW operates a Sibling Service at each hospice, providing dedicated support and care to the brothers and sisters of babies, children and young people living with life-limiting conditions. 

During family stays, the siblings can spend as much or as little time as needed with a devoted Sibling Team. Contact is maintained with the siblings during their time at the hospice, between visits with newsletters, emails and days out and after their brother or sister’s death, for as long as they need.

Consideration will be given to short term work experience placements at your local CHSW shop but levels of work cannot always be guaranteed. If you are interested in arranging a placement or having a placement yourself please complete the enquiry form on our contact us page.

If you have any concerns, please call 01271 313 311, Monday to Friday from 9am to 4.30pm. At all other times please leave a message on our answerphone or complete our online enquiry form. All complaints and disputes will be dealt with in accordance with the Complaints Policy.

Based on the 2023/2024 financial year, the odds of winning 1 of the 12 prizes is 1 in 1,305. Odds for our 2024 Raffle will depend on the amount of tickets sold.

Any money you raise on an online giving platform is automatically transferred to CHSW after the event.

You will need a licence from your local authority for an event that includes any of the following activites:

  • provision of food and drink
  • extended hours
  • collecting money or selling goods in a public place
  • sale of alcohol

For more help and advice please contact your local community fundraising team.

Please bring with you your coin collection and gingerbread coin collection houses on the day to hand in at registration. Please make sure you write your names on these so that we know who the money has come from, and we can allocate it to your fundraising total. 

We recommend you don't send in cash through the post.  Please remove your coins from your coin collection and then donate for them on our online donation page along with any other sponsorship you've collected.  

You can send your sponsor forms and coin collection card along with a cheque to:  

Santas on the Run Eden Project and Plym Valley Railway

  • CHSW, Little Harbour, Porthpean Road, Porthpean, St Austell, Cornwall, PL26 6AZ

All money raised on an online giving page automatically is sent through to us - you don’t have to do a thing! 

 

Unfortunately it is inevitable that, with so many runners, some people will get injured in training for a race. What happens next depends on how you got your place and what race you are doing.

If you are using your 'own place' to run for CHSW (i.e. you obtained it directly from the organisers of that race) you simply need to let them know you can no longer take part. They will decide whether you can defer your place to the following year. We'd also appreciate it if you could let us know so we know how many runners to expect on the day.

If you have a guaranteed charity place, which you obtained by paying a registration fee with CHSW, then you must let us know as soon as possible if you are unable to take part in your event. We cannot automatically defer your place to next year's event, and all registration fees are non-refundable. 

Please email enquiries@chsw.org.uk or call us on 01271 325 270.  Tell us your name and the time, date and value of your donation, and we’ll be able to help. 

A full kit list and advice on what else you should bring is available on the Ride for Precious Lives web page.

Yes, all participants running the Marathon need to be 18 or older. All participants running the Half Marathon need to be 17 or older. 10k participants must be 15 or older.

We suggest all Rainbow Runners wear sunglasses to prevent paint drifting into your eyes. It is the adult's responsibility to ensure children in their group wear sunglasses during the event.

We will have sunglasses for sale on the day for £2.

If you have not done any exercise for some time we recommend you visit your doctor before starting your training. Our tour operators provide training guidelines when you sign up.

We rely on the support of volunteers across all departments. From covering reception to serving refreshments in our hospices and helping in our shops, our volunteers enable us to raise funds and deliver our services. You can find available opportunities on our volunteering opportunities page.

  • catering/housekeeping
  • complementary therapies
  • creative art activities
  • driving
  • events and fundraising

  • maintenance/decorating
  • public speaking/ambassador
  • reception
  • telephone support

Of course you can. Your Will is your document and you can include, exclude, add or remove whoever you wish. If you change your mind or if your personal circumstances change, you are free to change your Will as many times as you wish. You don’t need to let us know either; it is entirely your choice.

Only persons aged 18 years or over and resident in Great Britain are eligible to play the Raise a smile Lottery including CHSW Staff and their families. However, CHSW staff who are directly involved with running the CHSW Raffle and CHSW Directors are not eligible to play.

As all teenagers wish to be independent, the hospice also holds teenage focused weekends, giving them the opportunity to come and stay without their families. 

Three different weekends are arranged each year, plus 1 sensory teenage week. The weekends are often themed to suit varied interests including pamper days, cars and games.

It gives the teenagers the chance to socialise with others and time to talk about their experiences.

The Raise a smile Lottery uses lottery software licenced and regulated by the gambling commission. Players receive a unique randomly selected draw number(s) created by this software.

All lottery numbers paid in advance are entered into a computerised randomly selected weekly draw which normally takes place every Friday. Once a number is drawn it is removed from the draw therefore it is not possible for one number to win more than one prize. Prizes are allocated in the order of prize value.

Of course! This event had in previous years been a women-only event, however for the last few years everyone is invited to join us and this will remain for all future memory walks so everyone has the opportunity to celebrate the memories they have of their loved ones.  

In Clevedon and Cornwall, the event is open to anyone 12 years old and over. In Devon, the event is open to anyone 5 years old and over.

There are plenty of ways you can get your fundraising started for minimal costs. Local companies may sponsor your event, donate goods or lend you their services for free. Take a look at our fundraising ideas page for simple ways to keep costs low.

Babies, children and families across the south west of England can be referred to CHSW.  We support more than 500 families at our 3 hospices across the whole region.

We will provide any training that is necessary.

Yes, but only a small one. Your employer will use a Payroll Giving Agent (like a charity bank) to distribute the donations that you and your colleagues make. The Payroll Giving Agents are charities that need to make a small charge to cover their operating costs. Some employers pay this fee on your behalf so we receive your full donation.

If your employer doesn’t pay the fee, the Payroll Giving Agent will deduct it from your donation before passing it on to us. This will be between 2% and 4%. This compares favourably against the admin costs of claiming Gift Aid on a Direct Debit donation.

If you have any concerns, please call 01271 313 311, Monday to Friday from 9am to 4.30pm. At all other times please leave a message on our answerphone or complete our online enquiry form. All complaints and disputes will be dealt with in accordance with the Complaints Policy.

You can download a sponsor form from our fundraising tools page.

If you're taking part with colleagues from your workplace, please sign up using the online registration form and include your company name within the group. You will need to sign up each member of your work colleagues individually for health and safety reasons if taking part in one of our physical events.   

You can download a sponsor form from our fundraising tools page.

You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason. This cancellation period will expire 14 days after the day on which you (or the person you nominate) received the goods, or received the final item from an order for several items. To exercise your right to cancel you must inform us in a clear statement sent by post or email to the address below.

Children's Hospice South West, Little Bridge House, Redlands Road, Fremington, Barnstaple, Devon, EX31 2PZ

If you cancel this contract, we will refund all payments received from you, including the costs of standard delivery only. We may make a deduction for the loss in value of the goods, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the refund as soon as possible, and no later than 14 days from the day you return any goods, or provide evidence of return. We may withhold the refund until we have received the returned goods, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

We will make the refund using the same means of payment that you used for the initial purchase unless you have expressly agreed otherwise. You will not incur any fees as a result of the refund.

You shall send back the goods without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation of this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired.

Returned goods should be in perfect condition to obtain the full refund and we ask that you arrange and pay for return postage (unless the goods are faulty). If goods are faulty you can request a replacement instead of a refund. 

Charitable donations made with an order cannot be refunded.

The ride is designed to offer a challenge to cyclists of all abilities. You will need a good level of fitness in time for the event, each day you will cycle between 60 to 90 miles incorporating several hills. As long as you start training early enough, even new cyclists can take part. Our training plan offers you some ideas to be event ready. You can also download the route and incorporate some of the local sections in your training plan.

This event is aimed at runners of all speeds and levels, so we don’t want to encourage this to be a walking event. The marathon route needs be completed by the cut off time of 7 hours, and the half marathon cut off is 6 hours. If during the race, you foresee a problem and believe you will not be able to complete in time, you will need to tell the nearest marshal who will assist you.

The paint will only be thrown in our designated Rainbow stations by trained Rainbow throwers. The paint will be aimed onto the body of the runners rather than the face to reduce the amount of paint getting into the mouth, nose and eyes.

However we recommend that you consider wearing sunglasses/goggles to protect your eyes from the colour as you will inevitably get some paint on your head/face. Runners who are not so keen to be in the direct firing line of the Rainbow throwers are recommended to stick to the inside of the running lane to receive the least amount of paint.  Use the outside lane for maximum explosions of the Rainbow!

If you cannot raise the money in time, we will ask you to make up the costs yourself in order to take part in the event. If this is not possible, we will offer you the opportunity to join another challenge in the future, giving you longer to keep fundraising. If you do have to cancel from the event, we will refund your sponsorship to your donors directly, if requested by them.

Please note that cancellation charges do apply if cancelling within eight weeks of departure date, (although travel insurance may cover cancellation costs, depending on the circumstance).

You have the option to stay with your child or the opportunity to leave your child at the hospice while going away for a break.

No, but the more relevant experience and qualifications, and perhaps most importantly, enthusiasm you have the better.

It is important the Raise a simle Lottery and CHSW Raffle are a fun way to support Children's Hospice South West, but that they never have a detrimental effect. CHSW is committed to ensuring the Lottery and Raffle are operated in a secure, fair and socially responsible way. For more information please read our Social responsibility in gambling Guide.

CHSW Raffle prizes are 1st £2,500, 2nd £500, 3rd 10 x £50 

Unfortunately, you cannot turn up on the evening if you have only added a dedication. 

For health and safety reasons, only registrants who have been sent their walker number and registered for one of our limited spaces will be able to join us on the evening. If you've decided you would now like to join the in-person event, please register with the relevant ticket on our website.

Unfortunately it is inevitable that, with so many cyclists, some people will get injured in training for a race. What happens next depends on how you got your place and what race you are doing.

If you are using your 'own place' to run for CHSW (i.e. you obtained it directly from the organisers of that race) you simply need to let them know you can no longer take part. They will decide whether you can defer your place to the following year. We'd also appreciate it if you could let us know so we know how many runners to expect on the day.

If you have a guaranteed charity place, which you obtained by paying a registration fee with CHSW, then you must let us know as soon as possible if you are unable to take part in your event. We cannot automatically defer your place to next year's event, and all registration fees are non-refundable. 

A full kit list and advice on what else you should bring is provided in your event information.

Yes please. We would like you to let us know that you (and any members of your school or swimming group) are taking part so we know how many of you wonderful people are supporting CHSW, ensure you receive information relative to the event and support with your fundraising. 

Yes.  Please bring your coin collection cards and sponsorship in an envelope with your name and runner numbers written on the front. Please hand this in at participant sign in.
