Registration Fee/Sponsorship Money
We require a non-refundable, non-transferable registration fee of €50, and you must also undertake to raise a minimum amount of sponsorship money of €250 for MS Ireland. The minimum sponsorship amount must be paid in full two weeks prior to the event. If you are unable to meet the sponsorship requirements, you may forfeit your place on the event – or you may choose to make up the balance yourself. Should you, for whatever reason, not take up your place on the event, all sponsorship forms and sponsorship monies collected should be forwarded to MS Ireland. You may cancel your place on the event at any time by sending written notification to MS Ireland. You accept that MS Ireland may incur substantial cancellation costs and that these costs will be deducted from your sponsorship.
You must carry out all methods of fundraising in accordance with the guidelines set out in MS Ireland’s fundraising procedures. You are fully responsible for all fundraising events that you carry out, and MS Ireland does not take any responsibility for them.
You must not use your participation in the event as a vehicle to raise funds for any other charity.
