Project 250: Power the pool!

Get ready to make a splash! This Saturday at our free community fun day, we are officially launching our brand-new fundraising campaign: Project 250: Power the pool.

We are on a mission to raise £250,000 to upgrade the Doncaster hydrotherapy pool, creating a state-of-the-art facility to provide life-changing support for our local community. We need your help to power it up and smash our £250,000 target!

Event details

  • When: Saturday 18 July.
  • Where: Woodfield Park, Flourish, Tickhill Road, Doncaster, DN4 8QP.
  • Cost: completely free entry.
  • What’s on: free ice cream, popcorn, and candy floss, a giant Gladiator-style community competition, netball, alpacas, street food, and tons of family activities

How the Project 250 virtual challenge works

You don’t have to wait until Saturday to start supporting us! Our Challenge Hound virtual challenge officially launches this Friday. Our community goal is to collectively log 250 kilometres of movement while raising vital funds toward our £250,000 pool target!

  • Fundraise to take part: this is a sponsored challenge, and we’re asking all of our participants to fundraise! Once you sign up, you can set up your personal fundraising target to share with your friends, family, and colleagues to help us reach our £250,000 goal.
  • What counts? Walk, run, cycle, swim, or roll, any active movement counts toward our 250 km target.
  • Smart syncing: easily link your smartwatch or favourite tracking app, such as Strava, Fitbit, Garmin, or MapMyRun. Once connected, any activity you track on your app will automatically sync to our Challenge Hound board.
  • Manual input: No tracking tech? No problem. Simply log into the page and enter your distance manually in kilometres.

Join the challenge directly, get registered early, and start your fundraising page

Whether you join us in person on Saturday for some free candy floss and fun, or log your kilometres virtually from home, your support and fundraising make a massive difference. Let’s build something amazing for Doncaster together!
