About Tall Stories

Tall Stories specialises in charity fund-raising events, corporate events and group events, in the UK and Europe.

Over the past 8 years we have built up an excellent reputation within the charity fund-raising market, organising fun yet challenging events. We offer a wide choice of Open events and bespoke events, from the relatively easy to the very challenging, from the top of Scotland to the south of Spain, all of which have a suitable objective or theme to make them sponsorship worthy.

We only run Tall Stories inspired and organised events - we don't sub contract and we don't "broker" for anyone else. So you can be sure that any Tall Stories event will be cost-effective, professional, unique and not available anywhere else.

Tall Stories started out life as an adventure sport holiday company offering such "extreme" sports as canyoning, scuba diving, paragliding, mountain biking, etc. To do any of these sports you need a healthy respect for safety.

Since 1998 we've also organised charity challenges and these are now our main area of business.

The Tall Stories Charity Challenge team is made up of a core of event organisers and managers supported by a pool of UK trekking and bike guides, local guides, mechanics, drivers, etc.

We also have a fleet of trusty minibuses which we use as support vehicles around Europe. Depending on the skills needed to run an event, we will put together the perfect mixture of organisers, guides, medics, back stops, vehicles, etc to really give you a trip to write home about.

Over the last decade these 8 challenges have consistently proved themselves to be winners with both the charities and participants alike. If your charity is looking for an established event with a proven track record then these could be for you.

Trek Challenges
Our comprehensive list of all our trekking challenges stretching from the Scottish borders to Mount Olympus and everywhere inbetween.

Cycling Challenges
London to Paris? Cross the Alps? Pyrenees MTB? Tour de France? These are just some of our fantastic on-road and MTB cycle challenges.

Winter Challenges
Outdoor fundraising events in the winter - is that a good idea? It is when it's a Ski & Snowboard Charity Challenge! These events are hugely popular with a wide variety of people but especially the ABC1s for whom fundraising is often easiest.

Multi Sport Challenges
Challenge your fundraisers to the full outdoor experience! Mix trekking with mountain biking, canoeing, orienteering and much more...

Loyalty (Long Term) Challenges
Build a real long term relationship with your fundraisers by setting challenges so big that they just can't be knocked off in a long weekend. (Raise more money too!). How about a bit of Munro bagging over a few years? Or cycling John O'Groats to Lands End over 3 months?

Adventure Races
These are fantastic events where you or your team are not only facing the challenge of a life time but you're also competing against everyone else for the grand prize! Races are available in the UK and in Europe and can combine trekking, biking, canoeing and more...

Other Challenges
If it doesn't fit into the other categories then it goes here. If you're looking for something very different (or very difficult) then you could find it here!
