A journey of discovery

Plans for the 2009 attempt at the non-stop Bann Challenge are underway....  why not plan your own chalenge now?

 

Source2sea is the new way to challenge yourself by following the course of any river from its source to where it meets the sea.   This site has been designed to provide a one-stop base to help you to organise your own source to sea challenge. 

Source2sea is a non-profit making organisation and the facilities offered by source2sea.org are offered free to all challengers and charities.  Some of the site is still under construction and some of our pages are not yet complete.  If you have any relevant information that you would like to suggest for inclusion please contact us.

Challenges can be of any distance or duration and involve as many participants as you want but should follow some simple guidelines and rules in order that your challenge is recognised.

Some of the rules are:  Your challenge can be of any distance; Your challenge can be of any duration; No powered (motorised) transport should be used for your challenge; You can raise money for your favourite charity or organisation.  The guidelines and rules are there to ensure all challenges are organised safely and carried out under similar conditions for all participants.  See Challenge Rules for further details.

You can also learn some of the skills needed to carry out S2S challenges before setting out on your journey.  Elements Adventure are an events company based in Ireland who can provide a range of indoor and outdoor training.  Visit www.elementsadventure.co.uk for more information.  Please mention Source2Sea in all communications.

We also offer a link from this site for all registered charitable or recognised organisations.  These can be accessed from our links pages so that challengers can look up charities and related organisations who are based in their areas. 

Source2sea welcomes reciprocal links with other groups, activities, agencies or companies.  See our links page for details.
