You can take on the challenge alone or with friends and family, indoors or outdoors – you choose what activities you want to do, with plenty of ideas from us!  From biking to boccia and table tennis to tumbling, there’s no right or wrong way to take part!

Frequently asked questions

All you need to know about Jump into Jan

What does Jump into Jan involve?

When you take part in Jump into Jan we challenge you to get active every day (or as often as you can) in January.

You can choose how you get active and work at your own pace – anything goes!  We won’t set a minimum time or any rules on what you have to do, but we will be here with plenty of ideas and motivation.  We would love to hear what you’re getting up to!

 

How do I sign up?

  1. Click on the sign up buttons above and enter your details to get started.
  2. Join our Facebook group to get updates and ideas and be part of our Jump into Jan community
  3. Start your fundraising page via JustGiving here:  [enter link].

It is free to sign up to the challenge.  If you have any questions please contact events@tyhafan.org.

Can I take part with friends or family?

Yes!  You choose your activities, so you are more than welcome to get active with friends or family.  Sign up is free, so why not rope them in too!

How fit do I need to be to take part?

This event should be accessible to most people as we encourage you to go at your own pace.  Please make sure you get active within your ability, and if you have any concerns speak to your doctor.

I don't have Facebook, can I still join the challenge?

Yes!  We would love you to join our Facebook group for the challenge but if you don’t have Facebook you can still take part.  We would still love to hear about your activities, and we can be contacted at events@tyhafan.org.

What if I don't manage to be active every day in January?

It doesn’t matter!  The main thing is that you have fun while taking part in this challenge and complete as many activities as you like.

We don’t need proof that you have ticked off every day, but we would love to hear from you about what activities you have been doing in our Facebook group!

Can I start the challenge early or late?

Our Facebook group will be active throughout January, but if you join late or want to extend the challenge you are more than welcome.

How do I fundraise?

The easiest way to fundraise is by setting up a JustGiving page and sharing it with your friends and family, who can sponsor you online.

You can start a fundraising page linked to our Jump into Jan campaign by clicking here: [enter link]

When you sign up you will receive a fundraising pack, and we will share ideas on the Facebook group to help you along the way.  You can also contact us at events@tyhafan.org if you need any help.

Can I fundraise offline?

If you prefer not to use JustGiving and would like to fundraise offline we can send you a sponsor form.  Please contact us to request one at events@tyhafan.org.

Is there a fundraising target?

We are asking participants to aim to raise £100.

The money you raise by taking part in a challenge for Tŷ Hafan goes towards our specialist care and support for children with life-shortening conditions and their families, in our hospice, communities and homes.

How do I get my t-shirt?

When you sign up we will take your address and t-shirt size.

When you start your fundraising page we will post your t-shirt out to you.  Please note, due to holidays we will need to have your details and fundraising page set up by 16th December to guarantee that you will receive your t-shirt before 1st January.  If you register and set up your fundraising page after 16th December we will get your t-shirt to you as soon as possible!

If you haven’t received your t-shirt two weeks after starting your JustGiving page please contact events@tyhafan.org.

How can I keep track of my activities?

As part of your fundraising pack you will receive a calendar where you can track your activities.

We won’t be checking that you have been active every day, this is just for you to keep track if you would like to.

Help! - I don't know what activities to do.

We will be here throughout January with motivation and inspiration!

As a start, why not take a winter walk, or try some stretching or yoga to ease into January and banish those winter blues.

Make sure you join our Facebook group to share ideas with other participants.
