Go Beyond is the new name for children's charity CHICKS. Giving children and young people a break that lasts a lifetime.
About us
Go Beyond is the charity giving children and young people facing serious challenges in their lives the chance for a break that lasts a lifetime. Formally known as CHICKS. On breaks under wide open skies in the countryside, Go Beyond’s expert staff and committed volunteers give children and young people who have been bereaved, abused or bullied, who are living in poverty or caring for loved ones the chance to escape their worries and pressures. To have the moments and experiences they need to believe in themselves and think beyond the day-today for a bigger, brighter future. From splashing in the river in their wellies to braving the dizzying heights of a rock-climbing wall, each break is packed with activities intended to encourage self-belief and inspire adventure. By getting out and getting involved, Go Beyond’s biggest hope is for each child to go home knowing they can achieve more than they ever thought possible, inspired by what the world can offer them, and what they in turn can offer the world. Every break is totally free-of-charge for the children and young people. That’s where you come in. To find out more about how you can join in and support go to www.gobeyond.org.uk.

Today is World Refugee Day. At Go Beyond we welcome refugees and value their contribution to our communities. With global conflict rife, we are seeing more and more refugee children come through our doors in need of a break.

A great big "hoorah" for Secure Trust Bank who raised a whopping £7,000 for Go Beyond by doing the Three Peaks Challenge. The weather wasn't always kind, but they soldiered on to help give a slice of sunshine to children who need it. #corporatefundraising #csr #esg

A huge thank you and well done to the brave folks at PepsiCo for jumping out of a plane at 15,000 ft for Go Beyond! Finally some good weather at the end of May meant Chris, Selina, Neil, Jake, Jamie and Kevin could complete their charity skydives, raising over £2500 to provide breaks for disadvantaged children. Amazing! If you’re feeling inspired, head over to our website to find out how you could get involved with fundraising!

Big news! We are absolutely thrilled to announce that we have been chosen as a charity partner of adventure champions, Go Ape! We are one of the first charity beneficiaries of the new Go Ape Foundation, set up to help people overcome financial challenges to access adventure - something we fiercely believe in. We are very excited for all that’s to come as part of our partnership and for the many hundreds of children who are going to benefit as a result. Thank you, Go Ape Foundation – let’s do this!
