Charity sponsorship – you pay a small registration fee; do lots of fundraising and we cover the cost of your event place!

Mixed funding – pay half of the event place cost yourself; fundraise a bit less and we pay the balance of the event place cost.

Self fund – you pay the full cost of the event place; fundraise whatever you want, with no set target or deadline, and there’s no cost at all to the charity!

When fundraising, we would advise that you set up a JustGiving page. 

At least 50% of the ‘sponsorship target’ should be with the Demelza 3 weeks prior to the Challenge. Failure to meet the deadline may result in cancellation of your place. The remaining 50% and any extra, should be with Demelza by 4 weeks after the Challenge.
