Sponsorship
All entrants are encouraged to collect sponsorship money from their friends and family for competing in the race. This money goes towards good causes in Abbots Langley and the surrounding area. The more money you raise, the more people we can help.
Schools are entitled to keep 50% of the sponsorship money they raise from their race entrants. To keep with the sporting theme, we would ideally love for this money to be spent on sport equipment or additional sports provision at your school.
