1. Do's and Don'ts

   Can I fundraise for another at the MoonWalk?

   No, by registering for the MoonWalk you have agreed to raise funds for Walk the Walk only. We can achieve so much more by uniting together against cancer, and the charity then grants funds to where we know it can make a real difference.

   It is illegal to donate money raised for the MoonWalk to another charity.

   Do I have to have raised all my fundraising before the event?

   No, but the sooner you start the more you can hope to raise. It helps us if we can receive your sponsorship within 8 weeks of completing your challenge, but if you find it is taking longer please don’t worry about sending what you can now and the rest later – we will never turn money away.

   How can I pay in cash and cheque sponsorship?

   It is best to pay any cash money you do raise, straight onto your fundraising page as soon as you receive it, but please be aware you cannot gift aid it.

   If it is a cheque, please send it to our Woking office with your name and address written on the back of the cheque. Cheques do go out of date so please send them to us when you receive them.

   In either event, we would appreciate you sending us your sponsor form with the full details of your sponsors filled in so that we are able to claim Gift Aid which adds another 25p in the £ to your fundraising provided your sponsor is a UK taxpayer!

   Can I have a paper sponsor form?

   You will be emailed a link so that you can download a sponsor form. If you have any problems with finding this please contact [email protected]... coming soon!

3. I have yet to collect all my fundraising for a previous MoonWalk. Can I still enter?

   If you have previously taken part in The MoonWalk Scotland but have not yet sent in all, or any of your fundraising, we would encourage you to send in your sponsorship as soon as possible. All our fundraising is important, and more so than ever before, so we will be getting in touch with anyone where our records show we have not received any fundraising.

    

    

4. Can you send me a Virtual Scotland sponsor form?

   Everyone who takes part in our challenges receives a sponsor form. You will also be able to download one here (coming soon). 

    

5. Adding an offline donation?

   If you have received money offline you can pay it onto your page directly, adding your donors name. Making sure not to add gift aid as the donation was not from you, you can then send a sponsor form so we can claim the gift aid matching up to your donation on your page. Alternatively, when you are logged into your page you will be able to see the option ‘+ an offline donation’, where you can add the amount and the name of your donor, you will then need to send the donation to us making sure it is payable to Walk the Walk Worldwide to our office address Walk the Walk 6 Genesis Business Park, Albert Drive, Woking, GU21 5RW. Further information can be found here.

6. Are you a Multi Challenger?

   Thank you for joining us on more than one challenge, please be aware that any money you raise over and above the minimum requirement for this challenge cannot be transferred to another year.
