HOW YOU CAN HELP
We believe that everyone deserves to explore the mountains, the rivers and experience the rugged outdoors.
Why not take part in a challenge event and help a child to access adventure?
From marathons and obstacle courses to 5km races, we have places in events up and down the country. To take part, find an event that interests you, contact us and commit to raising a minimum of £500 – we pay the entry fee. Please visit our website to find a list of eligible events.
We can’t run our programmes without the support of those who want to share their love of the mountains.
The adventure starts here:
- One off donations
- Regular gifts
Donate on this page.
Our partners are the ones who help make these adventures happen. From providing kit and equipment, to employees with a love of the outdoors who volunteer on the programme. Come on the adventure with us!
We have a range of options that are successfully working with our existing partners, including:
- Brand partnerships – equipment and kit essential to the safe running of our activities
- Strategic partnerships – an adventure beyond a financial donation
- Chosen charity of the year – working with us to raise vital funds
- Endorsement and marketing – simply spreading the word
- Events – from challenge days and team away days to hosting corporate events at Plas y Brenin
- Employee development – opportunities for training with the UK’s highest qualified instructors and volunteering to community engagement
Help us to continue the legacy of those who founded Plas y Brenin and set the stage for adventure, offering this opportunity to children who would not otherwise get the chance.
