Get involved Fundraise for us Fundraising FAQS Q. How do I create my fundraising page? A. You can create a fundraising page on our website through the 'fundraise your way' tab. This will allow you to set up your very own secure page so your supporters can donate quickly and easily with a credit or debit card. The money you raise comes straight to us saving you the hassle of transferring funds. You can also use photos, add a story, and set your fundraising target to encourage people to donate. Q. How many T-shirts/running vests can I have? A. If you are doing your challenge as a group, we will supply free T-shirts for up to two participants. Additional BTF T-shirts can be purchased from our online shop Q. What happens after I have registered for an event and paid my deposit? A. After you have registered and paid your deposit, you will receive an email confirming your place, and a sponsorship form to fill in and return to us. Once we have received your completed sponsorship form, we can advertise your event and send you a T-shirt or running vest to wear on the day. Q. What happens if I don't reach my fundraising target? A. For some events, we ask that you raise a minimum amount. This will be stated at the time of booking. This is necessary due to the cost of places in some races/events. If the fundraising target is not met, we would need you to make up the difference. Q. How do I increase my donations? A. There are lots of ways to boost your donations. One simple way is to remind people again about your fundraising event by sharing it on social media. If you're doing a sporting challenge, how about organising a sweepstake on your finishing time and giving a small prize to whoever has the closest guess? Or think about how you can make your 'ask' stand out from others. How about doing your event in fancy dress or colouring your hair for extra attention and pledges? Don't forget to post regular updates to your supporters. For example, if you're training for a challenge, could you post updates about how your training's going? Q. What happens if I have purchased my own fundraising place? A. If you have purchased your own place in an event, we won't ask you to pay an additional registration fee or raise a minimum amount. Just raise what you can through any fundraising platform (Enthuse, JustGiving, or the BTF platform). We can also send you a free running vest or T-shirt*, as well as details of how we can support you. Q. What if I have set up a fundraising platform that's not on the BTF platform? A. If you have set up either an Enthuse, JustGiving, or a page on another fundraising platform we can link it to our website giving your challenge extra publicity. Q. I want to fundraise for you but am not interested in doing a physical challenge. How else can I support you? A. There are lots of ways to support us that don’t involve participating in an event. We’ve prepared an A to Z of fundraising ideas to help you put the ‘fun’ into your fundraising activity. If you’re still struggling for inspiration, or have an idea you’d like to discuss, please get in touch with our fundraising team who’ll be delighted to help [email protected] Manage Cookie Preferences Please ensure Javascript is enabled for purposes of website accessibility
