Hangers Heroes

Weymouth, Abbotsbury and Dorchester are rich in history, character and charm. The undulating course is almost exclusively off-road and, whilst being challenging and rewarding, allows competitors to also enjoy the fantastic local scenery.

This event now starts and finishes at West Fleet Touring Park. Heading out along The Fleet, the course follows coastal national trails and bridal paths to Abbotsbury, passing the Swannery, Monastery and St Catharine’s chapel.

Challenge Walk has been a staple fundraiser organised by Roger and Nina since 1992 for charities and in it’s time has raised hundreds of thousands of pounds for charity.

Challenge has developed over time to now incorporate a run. Both walk and run are now full and half marathon cross country route, taking in some of Dorset’s well known and lesser known landmarks.

We  registered as a charity in December 2008, after the success of Challenge and Black and White ball, raising funds for Friends of the M.V.Freedom. It was then decided that we would extend our support to more small charities and not for profit organisations with the name changing to Hangers Heroes in 2010.

Our beneficiaries receive their cheques at a presentation evening usually in February, it gives us all a chance to catch up and is always a most enjoyable evening.

Our barn dance was added to our fundraising 4 or 5 years ago and has now become a permanent fixture on the fundraising calendar. Its always a great family evening and a lovely venue at West Holiday Farm. Moonfleet.

A tandem is an easy and enjoyable way to experience the thrills
of skydiving without having to learn how. The exhilarating free fall
