No transport.

Would you be able to make it back to base?

If you couldn’t care less about the intricate details and would just like to donate to the cause, don’t let us stop you.

Otherwise, here is the plan…

Our mission?

To raise much needed funds for the Norwich City Community Sports Foundation (NCCSF), a local charity that empowers people through sport and community. They create safe spaces to support and inspire people, and run a variety of community and inclusion based projects, such as:

  • Duncans Club, a support programme for people with dementia.
  • Pan-Disability Football, inclusive sessions for players of all abilities.
  • Coffee and Comrades, coffee mornings for veterans and serving personnel to socialise.

Please donate whatever you can to the cause. You can pick your favourite team to donate directly to, or pop your donation into our overall collection. We are insanely grateful for every single donation.

You can find more about the incredible work that the NCCSF do, supporting our community here.

So what’s the challenge?

Teams of 3 or 4 will be dropped off in a secret location, picked by random draw on the morning of the 11th September 2026.

They then need to find their way back to our studio on Thorpe Road Norwich by foot, with no assistance from technology, maps or sneaky hitchhiking! By foot only.

We can’t wait to see who flourishes through to the finish and who ends up lost in the Norfolk countryside.

Whatever happens we are already well on our way to raising over £3,000 for the cause, we would love to smash our previous fundraising totals and with the help of so many amazing teams, we think we stand a good chance of doing so.
