Fundraising
We ask each ADULT who takes part in the race to raise £100. We are aiming to have 100 ADULTS taking part, which means the fundraising total could be £10,000. If everyone aims high they will raise £100 in sponsorship - you could ask 10 friends to sponsor you £10 each, or you could arrange a get together or a quiz … with 15 friends or colleagues, you could charge them £10 each and raise £150 - £100 sponsorship and £50 to cover your costs.
