Looks like due to some unforseen circumstances I cant do the L2P this year.

I have signed up and paid the deposit (haven't done any fundraising yet).

Does anyone know if I can transfer my place to another willing volunteer?

I'd kill to do it another time, so if I cant sell my place, I can always ask to save my entry for another event.

    I would love to do the London to Paris but how the hell do you raise £1500!

    1200. + 100 entry fee.

    If you read the website and facebook group, ideas include:

    Sell 100 raffle tickets for 10 quid each. Raffle off iPad2 (400). 600 in the pot.
    Quiz night at pub?
    "When Kerry was fundraising for her Cambodia Community Challenge she came up with the clever idea of collecting at the door of a nightclub. Even buying glow sticks cheap on the internet to encourage people to donate. Kerry raised £500 in just two hours!" (from l2p website)
    Gift aid?


    I emailed them and it turns out I cant sell me place anyway. I can either do another event or just forfeit my 100 quid which I think I might do. Otherwise I have asked to donate it to my mate who I was going to do it with
