To take part, this is what you need to do:

Plan your design. It needs to be something to do with the event – so think about running, hills, trees, mud, or a number 8.

It's time for a challenge......Charnwood Challenge!

Sunday 4 October 2026

Now in its eighth year, Nanpantan Scouts are once again holding the Charnwood Challenge, an off-road event for runners and walkers which covers a 10 miles route through the beautiful Charnwood countryside.

This is a great fundraiser for the group, and we are looking for your support for the event in a number of ways:

Enter! Entries are now open for runners, walkers and the Junior Challenge for squirrels / beavers / cubs / scouts - a 1 mile 'fun run' through the fields, entirely off-road. 40 people have already signed up so it's going to be another popular event.

Marshal - This is a vital part of this event, literally keeping everyone on track! And we need lots of help with this. Please comment on this post if you can help - even for an hour or two. It's a huge help. You will be rewarded with a high-viz vest and refreshments :)

Share! Please share this post with friends, neighbours, and colleagues and encourage them to join the fun!

If you have any questions or would like to volunteer to help, please comment on this post or email: [email protected]

Squirrels had a fantastic sports evening this week - the rain forced us inside but it didn’t stop the fun! We began with a quick warm up before getting started on a rotation of activities. We were really proud of everyone’s attitude and effort and they all got a badge for their hard work!
