This option means the challenge balance of your event cost is met by raising a minimum sponsorship for a charity of your choice.

Step 5 – 80% of your minimum sponsorship must reach us no later than 12 weeks before departure.
Step 6 – If you have raised the required amount, the charity of your choice could pay the challenge balance
Step 7 – The remaining 20% of your minimum sponsorship should be sent to us no later than 6 weeks before the event.
Step 8 – Once all your funds have been raised successfully, we will transfer the funds over to your chosen charity if you are raising for a charity.
