Join the 40 Hour Challenge

Can you handle the challenge?

Hunger hangs around.
Hunger gets in the way.
Hunger doesn’t leave you alone.
Hunger stops you sleeping, playing and going to school.

We're asking schools and young people across the UK to challenge themselves for 40 hours  - what will they do? Live in a tent, give up technology, give up furniture? Their imagination is the only limit!

The funds they raise will help children around the world who are going hungry today, tonight and tomorrow too. 

Today, an estimated 50 million people across 45 countries are on the brink of famine and more than half of them are children. 

What will you do to help stop child hunger?
