Cambridgeshire Together we Lift
A strength-based mental health fundraiser
These events are mental health fundraisers designed to bring the strength community together to showcase how together we are stronger.
This is not a competition. It is a coach-led event training day, open to all abilities. At the Cambridgeshire event our events stations include

Event day structure
9am Arrivals
We ask that all athletes arrive between 9am & 930am.
Upon arrival you will receive your limited edition event day T Shirt & a Wristband. This wristband will indicate which group you will be in on the day.
945am “Rules” meeting
Rules meeting / Information of the day.
Ultimately its a charity event day. We are setting World Records, or competing. We are lifting and having a fun day so rules are few and far between, but it will be at this point that we remind everyone to respect one another, and respect the coaches & volunteers who are supporting the event.
10am - 2pm. together we lift
Between 10am and 2pm, you will take part in all four event stations.
You will get 40 minutes per event stations in your equal ability groups to work with our event coaches. Between each event station you will get 20 minutes breaks. These breaks are designed to allow you to refuel and begin warming up for your next event stations.
Around mid day you will get a 40 minute break allowing you to on board something larger to each, and to give our event coaches a break also.
During this 40-minute break we aim to fill 20 minutes with a talk relevant to the event.
2PM - Until we are finished
From 2pm we will start our legandary Tandem Deadlift.
We run this event station on it’s own to highlight the significance that our Tandem Deadlift holds. We allow everyone to come together at this stage regardless of ability in order to help support one another and allow people the opportunity to lift with someone they may train with, or know already.

Who are we raising money for?
All Together We Lift events are in aid of localised mental health services.
This is central to our mission. We believe real impact happens at a community level, so every event is designed to support local charities, helping build sustainable mental health ecosystems that continue long after the event has finished.
For this event, we are proud to be supporting Cambridgeshire, Peterborough and South Lincolnshire Mind (CPSL Mind).
CPSL Mind is an independent mental health charity providing essential support services across the local area, including:
one-to-one support and wellbeing services
crisis and early intervention support
community-based programmes that reduce isolation and improve mental wellbeing
Their work ensures that people can access practical, ongoing support within their own community, when and where they need it most.
Every pound raised helps them continue delivering these services and reach more people who may otherwise go without support.
Together We Lift does not take a penny from fundraising.
Event ticket sales are used to cover the cost of running the event, and all profits from the event, along with any additional donations, go directly to the charity.
The total amount raised will be confirmed and shared publicly once all event costs are finalised and fundraising pages have closed.
