Challenge Events

Over the Wall Camp have spaces available at a range of exciting events and you don’t have to be a runner to join in! Many events also need enthusiastic volunteers to marshal, motivate participants, and bring the event atmosphere to life. Volunteering usually takes no more than half a day, typically from early or mid‑morning to lunchtime or early afternoon.

This exhilarating charity fundraising event is a uniquely challenging stair-climb, ascending 475 metres to raise funds for charity, right in the heart of the city.

Participants will need true endurance and determination to conquer three iconic London skyscrapers – The Leadenhall Building, 52 Lime Street, and 20 Fenchurch Street.
