Challenge events for the Royal College of Surgeons

Coming up in 2020....

A sporting challenge could not only help you to improve your fitness, the money you raise will help us maintain and improve surgical care for patients through our state of the art training and pioneering research. We have a brand new calendar of challenge events and opportunities for 2020 for the already very sporty and those who would like to try something for the first time.

Update: Some of these events may be cancelled or postponed due to the COVID-19 response. For more information, please contact our fundraising team (0207 869 6086 or nextance-vaughan@rcseng.ac.uk), see our COVID-19 updates, and check the organiser's own website.

  In response to the challenge of COVID-19, RCS Council members Sue Hill and Tim Mitchell, who were due to start their cycle from Land's End to John O'Groats on 16 April, have regrettably taken the decision to postpone their cycle ride. They feel that it's sensible not to go ahead at this difficult time.

  Sue and Tim and their chosen charity Myeloma UK would like to thank everyone who has donated to their Virgin Money page so far, and they will arrange a new date as soon as they can.

If you are interested in taking part at one of the above events or are doing a sporting challenge in support of the RCS, please email us and register your interest.
