I knew I wanted to be a challenge leader after undertaking one of RAG’s fantastic challenges in my first year. I discovered a love for fundraising and RAG captured my heart, it’s such a wonderful society and I knew I wanted to become a bigger part of it going forward. I applied and was lucky enough to land the job of skydive challenge leader raising money for Unseen UK! Another reason for wanting to be a challenge leader was that I was returning from a year abroad and knew it would be a great way of meeting a new bunch of people! And I was right! |
Being a challenge leader has been fantastic. I’ve loved working with Unseen UK and getting to learn so much about the charity and how it runs and have loved helping out participants with their fundraising. However, perhaps the best part of being a challenge leader for me has been helping RAG on the whole! You really become part of a community when on the RAG committee and everyone works as a team to run all the amazing events they put on. I particularly loved helping out in RAG week, doggy de-stress will always be my favourite event!
There are so many ways to get involved in RAG and being a challenge leader is a fantastic opportunity! Knowing that I played a part in helping to raise RAG’s grand total of £90K this year really is the icing on the cake.
I would recommend being a RAG challenge leader to pretty much anyone, but perhaps more specifically: to anyone looking to gain skills in leadership, teamwork, and fundraising; to anyone who wants to make a difference to the world by helping to raise money for a bunch of amazing charities; or to anyone simply looking to make new friends and is willing to put in some work to do so!
