Women's Fund for Scotland

The Gold Challenge is our way of helping our grantees raise much needed funds. Projects funded by the WFS are eligible to sign up on the Gold Challenge website and choose to fundraise for the WFS. Any funds raised after the first £100 will be granted directly to project. It couldn’t be any easier!

Here’s how it works
The Gold Challenge is a unique opportunity to feel part of the excitement of the London 2012 Olympics and Glasgow Commonwealth Games 2014 by taking in multiple Olympic and Paralympic sports and raising money for projects supported by the Women’s Fund for Scotland.

Either as an individual or as part of a team, you can learn new skills, develop team spirit and improve general fitness levels all whilst drawing on the excitement of the forthcoming Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Participants challenge themselves to do 30, 20, 10 or 5 different sports.

So whether your challenge is testing yourself in multiple new sports, pushing yourself to the next level within your favourite sport or creating the most extreme sports challenge ever – the Gold Challenge will motivate and inspire you.

Here’s a short video showing how Active Nation supports the Gold Challenge.
