OPTIONAL EXTRAS
(*subject to availability)
TRAVEL INSURANCE
It is a Charity Challenge booking condition that you have a suitable travel insurance policy, which covers the adventurous nature of these challenges, the activities you are undertaking, and the altitudes you are reaching. Always declare any and all pre-existing medical conditions when asked, to ensure you have full protection should you need to make a claim in the future.
Please ensure the insurance you arrange is appropriate for your requirements and covers all elements of your challenge.
IF YOU ARE A EUROPEAN PARTICIPANT
Charity Challenge has chosen to partner with specialist travel insurance providers Campbell Irvine. They can arrange cover for an extensive number of activities, such as high-altitude trekking and cycling events, which include emergency medical treatment and repatriation expenses, and will cover most European participants.
We advise you to look at the annual multi-trip policy which can also cover other family members on the same policy for the whole year, as this may work out to be much more cost effective, if you travel more than once in a year.
Once you have organised your travel insurance, either through our recommended provider or your own insurance, please complete the waiver in your account area.

IF YOU RESIDE OUTSIDE OF EUROPE
We are aware that a number of our participants from outside of Europe have used a company called World Nomads for their insurance cover and have spoken highly of them. We do not specifically endorse the company as we have not vetted them, so please do your own due diligence on the cover provided and policy exclusions.
