We ask that every participant raises a minimum of £2,000 in sponsorship, which will go towards the running of Mary Ann. We ask that you reach the first £500 by the 1st of January 2026. Your place could be at risk of being rejected if you do not raise £500 by requested time frame. The remaining £1,500 should be reached within one month of the event taking place.
