About Us
The Mendip Challenge is an exciting sponsored event for those looking to have fun, challenge themselves and raise money for Weston Hospicecare. The routes - 10 miles, 20 miles or 30 miles - are open to all individuals, teams, families and dogs and take you along the West Mendip Way in the Somerset hills!
The event will take place on 2 June 2019, and registrations will open early in the new year. So, if you’ve not taken part before – or if you have, but loved it and want to get involved again – keep an eye out for updates on our Facebook and Twitter pages… and we’ll look forward to seeing you then.
So what are you waiting for? Dust off those walking boots and get hiking for a great cause.
