Dunolly Adventure Outdoors offers charities the opportunity to use the facility to attract people to take part in fund raising exercises to raise money for their own particular charity.

Whitewater river rafting is a perfect medium to use for this purpose. WHY...?

A fund raising day needs to be attractive to people so that they will want to take part. It also needs to be something which when they do it, it gives them a thoroughly enjoyable day. Generally this means operating an activity which thrills easily without a long learning process beforehand.

The activity also fills the best part of a day but allows time for travel at either end of the day if necessary.

We will arrange all aspects of the event on the day for you which can include the trip itself including all equipment necessary, any accommodation requirements at the centre itself (we can sleep and cater for up to 63) and any catering arrangement from a barbecue to a sit down meal. We also have a large ground area in which groups can relax which is situated directly adjacent to the river that the rafting will take place on a lovely setting.

The Activity
We can take easily up to fifty persons at a time. If a larger number is required, with prior warning, we can arrange this for you. More that one trip can be organised in one day in fact up to three trips can be operated. Sunday is the best day for running the events as we have completely free use of the river on this day.

A guide per eight people in one boat is operated which gives the opportunity with larger groups to have a race event during the day with prize giving at the end.

Clients are issued with a wetsuit, a windproof cag, a buoyancy aid, a helmet and a paddle and a brief is carried out to all participants before venturing onto the water. Each trip will operate from between two and a half hours to four hours depending on the height of the water but we will know the time that it will take in advance so that suitable arrangements can be made.

Flat water games, racing, rapid running and rapid riding can all be done on any particular trip ..... it's great fun!

What is the potential for fund raising using this product?
Normally charities ask each participant to obtain sponsorship to the tune of £100 to £200. People are asked to organise themselves into groups of 8 to make a team. The potential is therefore in the region of £1600 per boat in the race. From this £1600 the cost of the service must be deducted (i.e. for one team the amount raised would be £1600 minus the £200 participants' cost).
We are sure you will agree that this is an effective way to raise money!

Our Experience & Expertise
Dunolly Adventure Outdoor Residential Centre knows that when organising events for large charity organisations it is essential that the day or days go smoothly because in essence we are representing the charity organisation as far as the participants are concerned. We therefore are very sure before advertising any kind of fund raising product that it is designed to be easily run with large numbers of people.

The participants need to be clear as to what they will be doing on the day and it is important that they receive the product that they have been offered. This way both participants and charities have a great day.
