CoppaTrek! with Gi - Great Wall

How to fund your challenge

This page provides you details of the costs of your challenge.

The costs below are per person.

Pay a non-refundable registration fee of £495 when you book and pledge to raise £4,000 for CoppaFeel!

This is broken down as follows:

• Target 1: You pledge to show intent to fundraise by raising the first fundraising target of £250 to be received by the charity 22 weeks before departure date (by 03/04/26).

• Target 2: You agree to raise the minimum sponsorship amount of £1,900 to be received by the charity 11 weeks before departure date (by 19/06/26). 

• Target 3: You pledge to raise the sponsorship target of £4,000 in total within 4 weeks of completing the challenge (by 11/10/2026).

If you have raised the minimum sponsorship amount, CoppaFeel! will then pay the balance of your expedition costs (equal to the minimum sponsorship target). 

The charity benefits by keeping the remaining sponsorship money and every pound over and above that you raise.

Please note that you can pay your registration fee in two instalments of £250 and £245. 

We know that fundraising large amounts can be daunting! But the friendly CoppaFeel! team will be on hand to offer you support in the build up to the trek.

Registration fee in instalments    

The first instalment of £250 is due at the time of booking. The second instalment of £245 will automatically be debited from your credit/debit card 31 days after you book. We can only accept payment for your registration fee by instalments if you book and pay online. Please note that when paying your registration fee in instalments, a £10 admin fee will be added to your first registration fee payment. Please note that your booking will not be processed (and we will not send an authorisation request to your charity) until we receive the payment for your second instalment. Your place on the challenge will only be held until 31 days from your initial booking. If we are unable to take your second instalment, your booking will be cancelled and normal cancellation terms will apply.

Insurance

Your safety when travelling with Charity Challenge is our main concern, which is why it is a booking condition that you have a suitable travel insurance policy, which covers you for the adventurous nature of your challenge, and the activities you are undertaking. Charity Challenge has chosen to partner with specialist travel insurance providers Campbell Irvine (for UK residents) and Rise & Shield* (for UK and non-UK residents). Both companies can arrange cover for an extensive number of activities, which include emergency medical treatment and repatriation expenses. Please note that Charity Challenge is not able to advise on matters relating to individual travel insurance policies and does not accept any liability for policy matters or claims. Please therefore make sure any policy you consider is appropriate for your specific requirements and the adventure you're undertaking.

We recommend that you take out travel insurance at the time of booking to cover you for any potential loss in case you have to cancel your plans on the challenge (i.e. loss of registration fee/balance).
