All entrants, in both races, are given sponsorship forms and encouraged to raise money for our nominated Charities through their efforts.   They may if they wish, of course, raise money for their own favourite charity, project, or club.   We have estimated that some £400,000 has been raised and distributed to charities in this way over the last 20 or so years.
