Get involved

There’s more than one way in.

You don’t have to walk it. You don’t have to have been to Nepal. You just have to want to help.

Share

Tell people.

There is one place to give, and it is this one. So the most useful thing you can do, whether you are walking a section or not, is put it in front of someone who has not seen it.

DonateJoin a section
  1. 01Share it with friends, family and anyone else who might give.
  2. 02Ask your employer whether they match what staff donate.
  3. 03Collect at work or at your club, then give the total here in one go.
  4. 04Put it in front of a group you are part of. A team, a choir, a running club.
  5. 05Post about it more than once. Most donations come from someone seeing a friend mention it.

If you walk

£250

Minimum fundraising commitment

This is not an entry fee.

Anyone who joined one of the organised walking sections committed to raising or donating a minimum of £250. That £250 could be raised through sponsorship, donated by the walker themselves, or made up of both, and several raised considerably more. The £250 was simply the minimum commitment.

Raise it

Collect £250 in sponsorship from friends, family, colleagues.

Donate it

Give the £250 yourself, in one go, when you register.

Combine the two

Put in what you can and raise the rest in sponsorship.

Go further

Plenty of people raised well beyond £250. £250 was the floor.

That would be

£7,500

for Nepal, before Joe’s own fundraising, general donations and business support are counted. This is an illustration of what the commitment adds up to, not money raised.
