Welcome to the 2026 H&PS Charity Challenge, Who Dares Wins!

Set against the stunning scenery of Blencathra in the Lake District, this year we have not one but two challenges - the return of Dare to Reach New Heights and the introduction of Dare to be Silent.

First, Dare to Reach New Heights is not just a test of physical endurance but also a journey of mental resilience. As we navigate through less trodden paths, we will be challenged to work together, solve problems, and support one another at various checkpoints.

Only the bravest will attempt to remain silent for 24 hours during Dare to be Silent. We will be challenging ourselves to look inward and take part in reflective activities including guided meditation, journaling and yoga (for all levels!). Can even the chattiest of our colleagues do it?

We are proud to share that over 100 dedicated colleagues from Accenture UK H&PS Community will be participating this year!

This year, we are championing a cause that resonates deeply with us: Tommy's - the pregnancy and baby charity who exist to stop the heartbreak and devastation of baby loss and to make pregnancy and birth safer - for everyone.

This incredible charity is dedicated to finding causes and treatments as well as providing trusted pregnancy and baby loss information and support.

Your donation will help find answers, cures and makes breakthroughs happen. Each donation will help take a step closer to saving babies' lives. Thank you.
