The Island Challenge - Saint Lucia 2025 · 17 October 2025 to 20 October 2025 · Start fundraising for this event

A four-day physical challenge including long distance running, sea kayaking, rainforest trekking and volcano hiking to raise £100,000 for life-saving equipment for paediatric facilities in Saint Lucia.

Story

We’re fundraising to help strengthen paediatric care in Saint Lucia by providing life-saving equipment for sick children and babies.

Gill and I are taking on a very hot half marathon as part of The Island Challenge – Saint Lucia 2025.

We both love the Caribbean, and this is our way of giving something back to a region that we so enjoy.

This year’s event will provide funding for essential new equipment in the Special Care Baby Unit of the Paediatric Division at the Millennium Medical Complex in Saint Lucia. The Unit cares for approximately 180 critically ill babies each year and stands as a symbol of hope for families during a vulnerable time.

If that isn't enough to persuade you to part with some cash, imagine me staying in an all-inclusive unable to drink before the run!

Thanks from both of us for your support.

Nick & Gill.
