Fundraise with your own sponsored Charity Abseil

There are so many options for charity fundraising events -  abseiling for charity is one of them! We are the No.1 provider of charity abseils in the South East and work closely with a number of charities to safely manage their abseiling events. 

A charity abseiling event is the perfect opportunity to fundraise whilst having an adventure and raising that much needed cash and recognition for your favourite charity. The great thing about abseiling for charity is that unlike many other charity fundraisers, it can be undertaken by people of all ages and abilities meaning that nobody is left out and everybody gets to play their part in fundraising.

A charity abseil can take place at any number of potential venues. We run abseil fundraisers regularly at the Spinnaker Tower , Peacehaven Cliffs and even from Cranes - or you can choose a venue of your own and we can assess it for suitability.

Are you wondering how to go about organising a charity abseil? Our blog "How to Organise a Charity Abseil" might help!

Below is all the information you will need to find out about running your charity abseil fundraiser with Hatt Adventures.

 


Organising the Charity Abseil

Organising a charity abseil fundraising event with us is easy. All you have to do is follow the steps below:

1 - Finding a Venue FOR THE ABSEIL EVENT

This is the fun part of organising an abseil for charity because your options are so diverse. You can be as creative as you like. Potential abseiling venues could include famous buildings, churches, bridges, towers or arches.

Due to high demand we won't be able to find a venue for you, but we are able to provide you with detailed information including helpful advice and tips (please ask us for an information sheet) and our team are always happy to answer any questions you might have. We also assess the suitability of your venue (see below).

2 - Contact Us TO ENQUIRE ABOUT ORGANISING YOUR CHARITY EVENT

Please complete our enquiry form with all the details of your charity, the abseil event, venue etc and we will be in touch shortly:

Please note: we receive a huge amount of photos on a daily basis which clog our emails so please don't email them - please use wetransfer. Thanks!

4 - Site Visit

It's time for us to fully assess your proposed venue for your charity abseil event. We will visit the site in order to write risk assessments and method statements. We will then send you a full break down of costs. The site visit is included in the overall cost of the charity abseil. Please note that if a site visit is completed and you choose not to run the charity abseil following this, you will still incur the full cost of the site visit (£250+VAT + travel & expenses.)

5 - Confirm your Booking

It's easy to book. Once the site visit is complete and the venue is determined as suitable we will need a 50% deposit with full payment no later than 30 days prior to the start date. The day itself will run as per our method statement.


Participants

Charity abseil fundraisers are always really popular events and you won't find yourself short of willing participants. If required our marketing team can assist with event promotion on our social media channels.

We believe in providing a high quality abseil experiences for all participants. We understand that the more people that abseil, the more money your event raises for charity, so we will do our best to get as many people abseiling as possible.

As a rough guide, for a 50ft abseil we can get approximately 10 people abseiling on one rope per hour. For longer abseils you will be looking at 6-8 people per hour.

The number of abseilers able to utilise one rope in an hour and the number of ropes required are dependent upon a number of factors including the abseil length, location and the speed of the abseils. Additional ropes can be set up to cater for large group sizes.

Pricing

Prices start from as little as £950+VAT and include such things as instructors fees, the use of specialist abseiling equipment, a site visit and a risk assessment.

As a guide, charity abseils normally cost approximately £25-35 per person, which groups usually charge as a registration fee for the event followed by setting up a minimum sponsorship limit for participants to raise. A suggested minimum sponsorship fee is £150 per person.

We will endeavour to keep your costs low so that as much money can be raised for your chosen charity as possible.

Fundraising Potential

Charity abseils have great fundraising potential. Each of our abseils for charity have raised between £6,000 - £25,000 for worthwhile causes.
