Please note that the costs and sponsorship levels listed on our website are based on a minimum of 8 participants on the challenge. We can run this trip with groups of 6-7 people, but there will be a small group supplement of £30. This is payable by your charity if you book under the minimum sponsorship or flexi options, and by yourself if you are a self-funder. If a small group supplement is necessary, we will notify you 12 weeks before departure.

There are a number of ways in which you can fund the challenge. Below are the options available:

self funder

The full cost of this challenge is £503 which includes a £100 donation to your nominated charity. You will be required to pay the deposit of £65 and insurance premium* of £15 at the time of booking and the final balance of £438 which is due eight weeks before departure (27/07/2012). You will receive fundraising advice and sponsorship forms and be asked to raise as much as you can for the charity. As you have covered the full cost of the challenge, 100% of this fundraising will be retained by the charity.

minimum sponsorship

You will be required to pay the deposit of £65 and insurance premium* of £15 at the time of booking, and pledge to raise a minimum amount of sponsorship, £750 for your nominated charity. You will need to send your sponsorship money to the charity as you raise it. At least 80% of the minimum sponsorship required (£600) must be sent to the charity ten weeks before departure (by 13/07/2012), and the remaining 20% (£150) within four weeks of completing the challenge (by 21/10/2012). If you have raised the necessary funds, the charity will then pay the balance of your expedition costs (which will not exceed 45% of the minimum sponsorship target). The charity benefits by keeping the remaining sponsorship money and every pound over and above that you raise.
