Kid’s Spring Challenge
Sign your child up and join thousands of families taking on the Kid's Spring Challenge this April, to support children and young people with cancer.

This August we’re challenging you to serve up a Tennis-a-thon for Young Lives vs Cancer. It is your game – your way. Pick your date, location and how you want to play.
Get creative and organise a 12 hour tennis marathon, a charity tournament, a play-and-pay event, or even a rally challenge.
Whether you’re an ace on the court or just picking up a racket for the first time, every serve, every volley, and every rally will help make a difference in the lives of children and young people with cancer. Let’s rally together, fundraise, and make this Tennis-a-thon a grand slam for a great cause.

Anyone is welcome to join in the Tennis-a-thon challenge! Unfortunately to set up a fundraiser and to join the Facebook Group, you must be over 18. However, if you wish to take part and are under 18 please ask a parent or guardian and ask them to set up a fundraiser and join the group on your behalf!
We are here with you every step of the way to help you complete your Tennis-a-thon. We have a support team on hand to give advice and top tips to help you reach your target. Just drop us a message in the Facebook group if you would like some support.
If you aren’t able to complete the full challenge, please don’t worry! Please let your sponsors know and send Young Lives vs Cancer an email at fundraisingevents@younglivesvscancer.org.uk
A Young Lives vs Cancer fundraiser is one of the easiest ways to collect your sponsorship. Your money comes directly to Young Lives vs Cancer so you don’t have to worry about admin or bank transfers.
Set your page up in just a few seconds by clicking here.
Alternatively you can set up a JustGiving Page here.
Also a snazzy Young Lives vs Cancer sponsorship form will be included in your fundraising pack! There are handy instructions for how to pay this in on the form. All you need to do is deposit your sponsorship into your own bank account, and then pay this in via our website.
Alternatively your friends can make a donation through our website – if they choose this option please make sure they include your full name and supporter number in the form – just so we know it’s you and that you took part in the Tennis-a-thon!
Yes, of course! The more the merrier. If they wish to join you for your Tennis-a-thon, they can share your page to help fundraise or there is an option to create a team so you can play and fundraise together. Alternatively, if they wish to set up their own event and set up own fundraising page, share the Tennis-a-thon in August sign-up form.
Yes – you can join from anywhere! Unfortunately, we aren’t able to post our fundraising packs internationally, but you can print off your sponsorship form and selfie card, and still be a vital part of Team Young Lives and the Tennis-a-thon.
We send fundraising packs out twice a week but they can sometimes take 10 – 14 working days to arrive. If your pack has not arrived, please contact us on fundraisingevents@younglivesvscancer.org.uk.
If you have questions or queries, please contact us at fundraisingevents@younglivesvscancer.org.uk or you can ask in the Facebook group at here.
