With the Brexit deal agreed the way ahead is becoming clearer for event organisers. Things are still developing and inevitably there are teething troubles but we continue to monitor the situation and will provide participants with all the information required well ahead of the event.

Each team will be provided with a live tracking device and access to our route map. We require runners to download the RunGo App and we will send across the running route for you to download. RunGo acts as a SatNav for runners and will provide turn by turn directions for each runner – a headphone is recommended. Team mates, friends and family will be able to follow runners progress on the live tracking device and this will act as your baton to pass between teammate at the changeover points and handed into basecamp HQ each evening for recharging.

Run2Paris is a charity fundraising event. The money raised will go to the Run2Paris Foundation who will split the money 50/50 with Parkinson’s UK and SSAFA.

You will need to raise £300 on your online page by the 25th April, a month before the event to confirm participation in Run2Paris.

Most people find that once they start fundraising they not only reach the target but go far beyond as it is such a great challenge to take on. Of course we are here to help you along the way with anything you need. You also have up to two months after the event to continue to raise the money once you have completed the challenge.

Many companies will match up to 100% of the donations you collect. Each company has a different policy and so please contact your HR or corporate social responsibility teams to find out more.

Like many other events, is that Gift Aid is not included in minimum sponsorship targets.
