Throughout the year the Rainforest Foundation fundraises through events both at home and abroad. Take a look at their current events to become involved or if you have any fundraising ideas and events of your own get in contact with them.

From 10Ks to triathlons, you can show your stuff for the Rainforest Foundation in a series of sporting events and challenges across the UK throughout the year.

Starting off on 4th May with the Great Edinburgh Run - a 10k city- centre course - the calendar includes:

18th May Great Manchester Run - billed as Britain's biggest and most prestigious 10K.

6th July British London 10K Run - race round the heart of historic London.

9th-10th August Mazda London Triathlon swim, bike and run on your own or as a team of three.

26th October Great South Run in Portsmouth - 10 miles along the Southsea seafront.

Places for these events are going fast, so get on track here.
