Here are the answers to the Frequently Asked Questions about our 75 Miles in September challenge.

How do I register for 75 Miles in September?

You can register and set up your fundraising page here. You can choose to either set up a Facebook fundraising page or JustGiving page.

How should I do my 75 miles?

You can complete your miles however you wish. Walk, jog, run, cycle, swim – it’s up to you!

How do I track my miles?

You can track your miles using our 75 Miles in September tracker sheet which will be sent out as part of your fundraising pack. You can also download it here.

Alternatively, you could track your miles using Strava or Fitbit. You can join our Strava club here.

When do I get my free t-shirt?

Once you have registered and activated your fundraiser, please allow 10 working days for your t-shirt to arrive.

How much do I need to raise?

Any amount raised is incredible. We know this is a tough time for many of us right now. But every donation – no matter how large or small – makes a huge impact for families and their babies spending time on a neonatal unit. You can ensure that parents can access crucial information and emotional support when they need it most.

How do I get a medal?

Everyone who has taken part in our 75 Miles in September challenge and completes their miles will receive a digital certificate. If you raise £150 or over, you’ll receive your very own Bliss medal!

What is a Facebook fundraiser?

A fundraising page which you set-up and run within Facebook. To donate, click on the donate button on the Facebook fundraiser, which is simple and quick to use.

How do I share it with my Facebook friends?

As soon as you set it up, it will appear in your friends’ newsfeeds. Then you can post updates on the page and more of your Facebook friends will see it. The more you post, the more people will see it, and the closer you’ll get to your goal.

Go to: www.facebook.com/fundraisers/manage to locate your fundraising page!

I don't have Facebook, how can I fundraise?

You can absolutely join in without using Facebook. Register for the event with our sign up form to get your t-shirt and fundraising pack and instead of following the instructions to set up a Facebook fundraiser, you can set up a JustGiving page instead.

How can I boost my donations?

Make it personal and make it fun! Post regular updates on your Facebook fundraisers or JustGiving pages to make people feel involved in your challenge. Post videos. Post selfies. Tag friends. The more likes and comments, the more money you will raise so be as creative as you can be!

I’ve finished the challenge, how do I send the money I have raised to Bliss?

The money from your Facebook fundraisers and JustGiving pages will be sent directly to Bliss – you don’t need to do anything!

Raised money offline?

The easiest way is to donate it directly to your Facebook fundraiser or JustGiving page.

If you have received money after your Facebook fundraiser has ended, please pay this money through our website by clicking on the Donate button below 👇 Please make sure you say that it is sponsorship money from an event, and use the name and e-mail address that you registered with.
