Frequently asked fundraising questions
Fundraising is exciting, energetic and lots of fun! Here are some things you may want to know.
Trick or treat yourself to a hair-raising hike around some of the City’s scary streets and historic haunts? Take on a terrifying 10km, a horrific half marathon, or a frightful full marathon distance–all starting and finishing from our Dungeon at the Oval Cricket Ground.
Choose your distance, gather your bravest guys & ghouls to make up a team–or go it alone if you dare and meet up with other chilling challengers. Dress to distress, and our creepy dungeon keepers at The Oval start & finish will meet, greet & shock.
Once you escape there’s ghostly looped routes, with zombie rest stops, and if you manage to get back in one piece there’s a macabre medal, a glass of the Devil’s fizz, some horrific hot food & drink–and as souvenir bobble hat to ward off the spirits as you head off. This event is strictly walking only–so no jogging or running is allowed.
You'll receive a FREE Help for Heroes Technical T-Shirt when you raise 50% of your fundraising target by 16 September 2022, to cover the cost of your place on the challenge.
Charity Sponsorship – you pay a small registration fee, do lots of fundraising and we cover the cost of your event place!
Mixed Funding – pay half of the event place cost, fundraise a bit less and we pay the balance of the event place cost.
Self Fund – pay the full cost of the event place and fundraise whatever you want, with no set target or deadline, and there’s no cost at all to the charity!
The team is on hand to answer all your questions from Monday to Friday, 9am-5pm. Whether you’re after event specifics, training tips or fundraising advice, we’d love to hear from you.
