London 2 Brighton Challenge 2025

24 – 25 May 2025

Walk, jog or run the London 2 Brighton Challenge for Deafblind UK!

100 / 75 / 50 / Marathon or 25 km challenge

2,000 adventurers of all experience levels & ages will take on a classic capital to coast route, testing their grit over the Bank Holiday weekend. You can choose to walk, jog or run your choice of distance, from the full 100km, three-quarter 75km, or a half or quarter options. There’s a challenge for everyone. A Richmond start in Old Deer Park – then the North Downs and wonderful Surrey & Sussex countryside to halfway at Turners Hill. The full challenge heads up and over the South Downs before the welcome sight of the Brighton coastline comes in to view. Your entry includes free food and drink at regular rest stops, plus full support including medics, marshals and massage. As you cross the finish line, you’ll get a glass of fizz, t-shirt, and a medal to commemorate your achievement.

Choosing to take on the London 2 Brighton Challenge and fundraise for Deafblind UK will enable us to continue providing vital support to thousands of people living with dual sensory loss each year.

What’s included?

  • Pre-event training guides and access to the challenge app
  • Hot meals, drinks and snacks en-route
  • Experienced marshals, medics and massage teams at rest stops
  • Fully-signed route
  • Finisher’s medal, t-shirt and a glass of bubbly
  • Shuttle buses and transfers


Fundraising options:

With £3 million needing to be raised each year to fund Deafblind UK’s full range of services, the difference your support makes cannot be overstated. Every £25 that you raise could pay for another hour of specialist wellbeing support for someone who is deafblind.

Choose your challenge distance and fund your entry in one of three ways:

  • Self-funding – you pay the full cost of the event place with no minimum fundraising commitment – just raise as much as you can!
  • Charity sponsorship – you pay a reduced registration fee and, providing you reach the fundraising goal, Deafblind UK will cover the cost of your event place
  • Mixed funding – you pay half of the event place cost yourself and, providing you reach the fundraising goal, Deafblind UK will pay the balance of the event place cost

Please note: when taking part in Ultra Challenge events you are asked to pledge to raise a sponsorship target when registering for ‘charity sponsorship’ and ‘mixed funding’ options. The sponsorship target depends on the distance of your challenge.
