Transaid Month 2026

Small actions, big impact!

Transaid Month is a time for Transaid’s staff, supporters and friends to celebrate and promote our work, as well as raising vital funds for our road safety and access to healthcare programmes.

Your support helps to transform lives across sub-Saharan Africa by improving road safety and access to healthcare.

This Year’s Theme: Small actions, big impact!

When: 1-31 May 2026

Take part as an individual

Set your own challenge this May and raise funds (or donate what you save) to support Transaid’s life-saving work.

Whether you push yourself physically or make a simple lifestyle change, every action adds up.

If you’d like to share your support on social media, check out our Transaid Flickr album for photos, and tips on how to talk about Transaid.

Physical challenges

Challenge yourself and get moving:

Walk, run, swim or cycle XXX miles in a week or month
Walk 10,000 steps a day
Walk to work every day in May
Take on your own creative fitness challenge

Set up a fundraising page on JustGiving and share your journey with friends, family and colleagues.

You can also join the Transaid Month 2026 Club on Strava to track your progress, connect with fellow supporters and share updates along the way.

Well-being challenges

This Transaid Month, consider swapping a daily habit for something healthier, and donate what you save.

Ideas include:

Bring a homemade lunch instead of buying one
Skip takeaway coffees
Cut out takeaways or ready meals
Go alcohol-free for the month
Quit smoking or reduce a regular spend

By making one small change, you could feel healthier, boost your well-being, and turn everyday spending into life-saving support.

For example:
Skipping a £3.50 takeaway coffee each weekday in May could raise over £70 for Transaid. Small actions really do add up.

At the end of your challenge, donate what you’ve saved via the Transaid Month JustGiving page, or set up your own fundraising page and share your progress throughout the month.

Payroll giving

You can also support Transaid through your company’s Payroll Giving scheme, allowing you to donate directly from your salary in a tax-efficient way. If your organisation doesn’t yet offer Payroll Giving, speak to your HR team about introducing it.

If you’re an organisation, remind your colleagues about the scheme, or talk to us about putting one in place!

Take part as an organisation

Bring your colleagues together this May and turn everyday actions into meaningful change.

Whether you host a team challenge, encourage individual participation, or amplify the campaign internally, your organisation can play a powerful role in supporting Transaid’s life-saving work.
