Please help us raise money for the following charities.  This can be done in one of two ways, either online below, or by sending a cheque. 

Donating online

To donate online you can either donate directly to Diabetes UK via the just giving website, or you can donate to the expedition charity account, which will be divided equally up amongst the charities on the completion of the fundraising goals.   Please note that for every donation online, a commission is taken and so it is ideal if you donate by cheque. 

Donating by cheque

If you wish to send us a cheque donation, you will need to make your cheque payable to “extreme south” and print off the gift aid form from below.

Please then post your cheque and Gift Aid form to:
