and do not forget if you cannot do the walk you can always sponsor someone on Wed night!!

Sorry I am unable to do the walk but I have sponsored and would like to make a small point about the sponsor forms...

it says to tick the box if you want to gift aid your money that you have sponsored..this costs you no extra but for every £1 you have sponsored the charity can claim another 33p (may have changed recently) from the government as long as you are a tax payer...however, many tick this box but don't give their full address with post code. If you don't give this then the gift aid cannot be collected as you cannot be proven as a tax payer!!

Just a point I wanted to make so as much money as possible can be collected :)

Re: Charity walk to rochdale
 

cheers for that a very good point!!

fingers crossed the rain will stop before sunday!!!

Great point from HR. It's 27p for every pound but still well worth claiming. The chancellor's just protected it it for a year or two to offset the reduction in the basic rate of tax from 22% to 20%.

Just had a look on the bbc website for the weather forecast for sunday - forecasting heavy rain!!! Good luck was going to offer water as you hiked past but if its raining you wont need it!!!

Re: Charity walk to rochdale

Re: Charity walk to rochdale
 

On behalf of all the walkers I would like to thank ASDA who have just donated a load of bottled water for the walkers
