Choose your challenge

Charity Sponsorship - you pay a small registration fee, do lots of fundraising and we cover the cost of your event place! As we are an official charity partner–you get 25% off the standard reg fee when you select our charity on the dropdown.

Mixed Funding - pay half of the event place cost yourself, fundraise a bit less and we pay the balance of the event place cost.

Self Fund - you pay the full cost of the event place-fundraise whatever you want, with no set target or deadline, and there’s no cost at all to the charity!

Please note, there is a cost to Battersea when you sign up. We therefore ask that you commit to raising the fundraising target to ensure that as much of your sponsorship as possible can go towards our vital work helping dogs and cats everywhere.
