Be Your Best

Be Your Best is back in 2022! Check back here soon to find out more about our exciting plans.

Ahead of this summer’s Tokyo 2020 Olympics Games, we’re launching Be Your Best in partnership with Team GB, to raise vital funds for people in crisis.

Our partnership with Team GB is all about community. Whether it’s a Team GB athlete relying on their coach’s support, or someone turning to a Red Cross volunteer to get them through a tough time – connections and relationships are vital. From the front line to the finish line, we can achieve so much more when we work together.

From 28 June, we’re working alongside the nation’s Olympians, past and present, to inspire people to be their best. This last year has proven that we can achieve so much more when we come together and look out for each other. Together, we are more powerful.

We want schools, local businesses and community groups to take part, and pledge to be their best – by running a quicker 5km, clocking up kind acts in the classroom, community or office, baking a record number of cakes or anything in between!

Where does the money go?

All money raised through this campaign will help our work across the UK and overseas. That includes making sure people have the connections they need, so that our communities are more resilient and can stand strong to face the future. Our teams are also supporting people who have been hit hardest by Covid-19, with practical and emotional help, as well as assisting at hospitals and vaccination centres.

If you haven't already set up a JustGiving page, visit www.justgiving.com/campaign/beyourbest. If you raised your funds another way, please pay in your money here.
