Fundraising options
With £3 million needing to be raised each year to fund Deafblind UK’s full range of services, the difference your support makes cannot be overstated. Every £25 you raise could provide a person with deafblindness vital contact from our befriending service for two months, helping to ease loneliness. The registration fee for this event is £95 and will be due upon registration.
Fund your entry in one of two ways:
- Self-funding – you pay the full cost of your challenge, leaving you with no minimum fundraising commitment – just raise as much as you can! That’s a reg fee of £95 + challenge cost £325.
- Charity sponsorship – Pay a £95 registration fee and commit to raising £650 sponsorship. Provided you reach the fundraising goal, Deafblind UK will cover the remaining balance of your challenge.
Can anyone take part?
The trek is suitable for all abilities with the correct training. The minimum age for this trek is 18 years old (if you are aged between 14 – 17 years you must be accompanied by a parent or guardian). The one thing everyone will have in common is a great sense of adventure and the desire to help a charity. Whether you are taking part as an individual or as a team with friends, team spirit will be flying high on the challenge.
