The Buccleuch Property Challenge returns for a 18th edition on Friday 11th September 2026. Taking place on the Queensberry Estate in Dumfries and Galloway, teams of three travel together completing activities such as cycling, orienteering, kayaking and secret activities which are revealed on the day. A well-known fixture in the Property industry calendar, we have raised over £230,000 for various charities over the history of the event.

Our charity partner for 2026 is Venture Scotland. Venture Scotland empowers young people aged 16-30, who are facing complex challenges, to first understand and then improve their mental health and emotions and in doing so, change the course of their lives.

Venture Scotland does this by delivering a progressive outdoor-based personal development programme. Using Scotland’s natural environments, both remote and within local communities, their programmes deliver regular group-based outdoor activities (e.g. rock climbing, canoeing, gorge walking etc.), life skills sessions, and bothy or camping residentials, backed up by 1-2-1 support sessions.

As a result, participants experience routine, caring relationships, safe spaces with peers, meaningful activity, mindfulness, regular sleeping and eating patterns, time away from technology and the scientifically-proven restorative effect of the outdoors.
