Challenges for NAT
Why a NAT overseas challenge?
Ever fancied cycling past the Pyramids, or trekking the Inca Trail at sunrise? Doing an overseas challenge with NAT will be a life-changing experience for you and for people living with HIV who benefit from our work.
How it works
You just pick which challenge you want to do, and email events@nat.org.uk We will send you all the relevant forms to fill in and give you loads of help and ideas to start you off with your fundraising.
You can then start raising money, which will cover the costs of the tour and, more importantly, will make a genuine contribution to NAT’s work.
Our challenges are run in conjunction with a reputable and independent travel company, who work to maintain an awareness of the host community and the environmental issues surrounding the regions our challenges operate in.
Up for the challenge? Five reasons why you should be...
- Make dreams a reality
- Have a reason for going to the gym
- Meet amazing people
- Unforgettable memories
- Help people living with HIV and those at risk of infection
