Botham Walk

Frequently asked questions


- Fundraising

Q. Is there a minimum sponsorship amount required?
A. Yes. This is an exclusive one-off opportunity to join Beefy on one of his walks and as places are limited we are asking everyone to raise a minimum of £250.


Q. We have entered as a family, do we each have to raise £250?
A. Yes. Due to the limited number of places available on each walk, we are asking every walker to raise a minimum of £250.


Q. How do I get sponsored?
A. Set up a Justgiving page, which you can then e-mail to friends, family, and colleagues. For more ideas on how to get sponsored see the fundraising section of the website. You will also receive sponsor forms and a fundraising guide with tips on gaining sponsorship in your walker’s pack.


Q. Where will my sponsor money go?
A. Your money will go towards:

*making sure that every blood cancer patient gets the information they need as soon as they are diagnosed

*improving individual diagnosis, ensuring that patients can be started on the appropriate treatment as early as possible and receive treatment that is tailored to their condition

*developing new less gruelling treatments ensuring that patients can lead as normal and healthy lives as possible during and after successful treatment

*translating all of this work from the research lab to the patient with clinical trials
