A refreshed events calendar is coming in 2026, with new ways for supporters to get involved, have fun, and continue backing our life-saving work. 

As we plan our 2026 calendar, we want to let you know that the Coast to Coast Cycle Challenge and 5K Twilight Shift will not be taking place next year.

Both events have been incredible highlights in our fundraising calendar over the years. Since 2011, the Coast to Coast Cycle Challenge has raised over £795,000, and the 5K Twilight Shift has raised more than £46,000 since 2022 - all in support of our life-saving work.

A huge thank-you to every participant, volunteer, and supporter who helped make these events such a success.

Looking ahead to 2026, our focus is shifting towards a brand-new, exciting calendar of events designed to reach a wider audience and offer more variety and accessibility for our supporters. First up is ‘Seaside Scramble’ - a fun-filled event for families, friends and colleagues, taking place at Baiter Park, Poole, next May.

Stay tuned for more details, and we hope you’ll join us for these exciting new adventures in support of DSAA!
