FAQs

What about my car?
You can park your car at Sandhurst all day.
Those taking part in teams, we recommend leaving a car in Pirbright Village before meeting us at RMA Sandhurst. Once finished at Brookwood it is a short walk back to Pirbright Village to collect your car.
For those joining us solo we can provide taxi details, or if there is enough interest will provide a transfer at cost.
What security requirements are there at Sandhurst?
Everyone taking part or attending on the day will need to provide their names and vehicle registrations at least two weeks ahead of the event. You and your vehicles will be booked into RMAS.
On the day, after showing government issued photo ID you will be issued a day pass and a vehicle permit, which you can use to return to collect your vehicle after completing the walk. Your vehicle must display its permit at all times.
No-one will be able to stay at Sandhurst after the walk has departed so anyone joining you not taking part in the walk will be escorted off site by the ABF staff.
Fundraising
What is the fundraising target and when is it due?
The total fundraising target is £150 and the deadline is the 30th March 2026.
How do I set up a fundraising page?
When you sign up, you'll be created a fundraising page which already has all the information about The Frontline Walk on it, all you need to do is add a photo, a little bit about yourself and start sharing your link!
If you're stuck for ideas, we also have a Facebook group set up just for people taking part in The Frontline Walk who always have plenty of ideas to keep you going.
Every year we, and the people who take part are amazed at the genorosity of the public in supporting our fundraisers.
Is Gift Aid included in my sponsorship target?
Gift Aid is not included in minimum sponsorship targets.
Can we fundraise jointly as a team?
Yes, absolutely – it can make your fundraising target easier to meet if you fundraise together. You can even have a team fundraising page. Just remember that the sponsorship target is per person, so if your individual target is £150 and you fundraise as a pair, you’ll need to raise £300 together.
How do I apply for matched funding from my employer?
Many companies will match up to 100% of the donations you collect. Each company has a different policy and so please contact your HR or CSR teams to find out more.
Can you supply Charity materials to help with fundraising?
Yes, simply order your materials from this link - Fundraising Resources.
