Can you be the ultimate survivor? 

On Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th October, we're looking to assemble a team of brave challengers to take on the Bear Grylls Survival Race.

For one weekend only, you can do as Bear Grylls does. Brave a 5km, 10km or even 30km obstacle course – complete with survival scenarios like those Bear experiences in the jungle, arctic, desert and mountain – right in the heart of London.

Join other North London Cares supporters and your test, strength and agility as you brave 20+ obstacles and Bear Grylls Survival challenges.  

It promises to be a tough but incredibly rewarding and memorable day. And by doing this in aid of North London Cares, with every obstacle conquered you'll be helping to form friendships, connections and conversations with your older neighbours across Camden and Islington. 

We know from our previous challenges that you guys have got the guts, determination and ambition to step up to this race. There's no fee to sign-up, but a minimum fundraising target of £150 for the 5km; £200 for the 10km and £300 for the 30km. 

The 5km and 10km take place on Saturday 8th October and the 30km on Sunday 9th October. 

To find out more or to join our team, please email Emily on [email protected]. 

Hope to see you at the start line!
