Centrepoint
A first for Jersey, this is no ordinary challenge! 4x4x48 was created by the legendary David Goggins and brought to life in Jersey by James Barrett, whose son Teddy loves The Space at Centrepoint.
Join Ultra challengers running 4 miles, every 4 hours, for 48 hours or take on one of our four alternative challenges. So if you run for a club, run regularly but want to challenge yourself further, want to run with colleagues in a relay or are a junior runner we have a run for you.
Run on island. Run remotely. Run solo. Run with friends. Together we can make a difference; together we can change children's lives; four miles at a time.
You can make a difference. As Jersey's leading childcare charity, Centrepoint funds year-round complex needs care at The Space at La Pouquelaye and, under contract with the Government of Jersey, we provide specialist, often 1-1, care at The Space at Mont à L'Abbé for the school holidays. This childcare enables parents to work, spend quality time with one another or their other children, or even just have a bit of much-needed “me” time; confident in the knowledge that their children are cared for according to their specific needs.
Our biggest financial challenge each year is funding the 7 weeks of care during the school holidays for The Space at La Pouquelaye – the cost of this care alone is nearly £55,800.
Our specific fundraising target through the Centrepoint 4x4x48 Challenge is £9,000, equivalent to one week of holiday care. You can support us by signing up to run through Race Nation and by raising money through personal sponsorship. Together we can make a difference; together we change children's lives; four miles at a time.
