About

Get in the spirit for the Paris 2024 Olympics with our schools fundraising challenge!

The campaign will involve classes learning about Olympic countries through Children’s Hospice Week (June 2024), and then running a mile at the end of the week in support of Forget Me Not! Classes can do as much with this as they like, from trying different countries food, wearing the countries colours for the run, to using our Sports Day pack to host a full on Sports Day!

We will be offering interactive assemblies in March/April, to give a bit of background on the hospice, let them know how the campaign works, and reveal our fab class prizes! We’ll also provide interactive fundraising trackers in the shape of the Olympic torch, to keep track of fundraising progress and promote a bit of healthy competition between classes.

It’s 1000 miles to Paris and back – could your school go all the way? Run, walk, egg & spoon or relay, how your pupils do their mile is up to you, but the more children who get involved, the further we’ll go and the more we’ll raise!

Interested in taking part in our 2024 Olympic fundraising challenge?
