Events and Challenges

Our events calendar always looks pretty exciting! From taking in the views on the golf course, running marathons, to racing down the river at the historic Bristol Harbourside in a 30ft dragon boat, there really is something for everyone. If you’d like to join us get in touch with our Fundraising Team for our 2026 events coming soon!

Fundraise with us at one of four events in 2026!

Summer 2026 is going to be huge for Gympanzees! The UK’s first ever fully accessible leisure centre will open it’s doors for the first time!

So, when you take on a fundraising event or challenge for Gympanzees, you’re helping to create a permanent home where every disabled child and young person can enjoy exercise, play and friendship for 364 days of the year.

The money you raise directly supports the build of our world-class inclusive centre, funding the specialist equipment and sensory spaces that families have told us will be life-changing.

From fun runs to corporate challenges, bake sales to skydives, every effort, big or small, brings us closer to opening our doors in Summer 2026. 

See how you can help in our biggest year yet!
