Once you have raised the minimum donation the charity will cover the cost of the challenge, which is £450.00 and keep the remaining donation to benefit their charity. 

The wing walk challenge is weather dependent therefore it may be wise NOT to book and pay for any travel and accommodation in advance.

When you select the fundraising funding option you agree to raise the minimum of £1000 per person in sponsorship for your charity.  You agree to send sponsorship money to the charity as they raise it.  100% of the minimum sponsorship required must be sent to the charity no later than eight weeks prior to the challenge.
