Step Up at Castlewellan Holiday Week 2025

This year at CHW, we're coming together to support one of our World Development & Relief partners - Open Schools Worldwide. As part of Step Up, we will complete a sponsored lap of the lake together on Thursday 7 August.

Closes 31/10/2025

WDR is part of the Methodist Church in Ireland. It works with a range of indigenous partners who carry out long-term development work to see local people empower themselves and bring sustainable change to their communities. Our vision is that every person's God-given potential is fulfilled.

Story

We are thrilled that Castlewellan Holiday Week will be part of Step Up this year! 👣

Step Up is all about tackling global poverty through fundraising events that make a lasting impact, through our World Development & Relief partners.

At CHW 2025, we’ll be stepping up together in a very real way! We’re going for a sponsored walk around the lake to show our support for our Open Schools Worldwide and the life-changing work they do.

It’s a small step with a big heart behind it, and we’re so thankful you’ll be part of it!

💙 Open Schools Worldwide work in Latin America and Africa

They reach children who can’t attend regular school, often because of poverty and the need for them to work from a very young age. By training local volunteers to deliver basic numeracy and literacy education in their communities, OSWW gives children a second chance to learn, grow, and dream big.

We’re excited to do this together. A local event, for global impact.

If everyone at CHW raised at least £50 each, we could collectively hit an incredible total of £10,000!

Every step you take, and every pound and cent we raise, will help transform lives. How amazing is that?!

🥳 Let’s Step Up together and show what a difference CHW can make!
