<p class="MsoNormal"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THANK YOU</strong> for taking the time to consider sponsoring one of the HOW FAR 2011 teams!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The HOW FAR CHALLENGE is a 36 hour event (25<sup>th</sup>-26<sup>th</sup> June, 2011) in which teams compete to get as far away from Brighton as possible and back again, using no money.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Their only currency is their wit, charm, out of the box thinking and persuasive conversation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Whilst competing in this challenge participants will:</p>

<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="text-indent: -18.0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;">-<span style="font: 7.0pt "Times New Roman";"> - </span></span></span><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Reach the furthest point</strong> possible (whilst being sponsored for every 250 miles of straight line distance the travel away from Brighton)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">LAST YEAR</strong> this event raised in excess of £5,000 for essential works that were needed in order to keep St Peter’s Church from being closed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This year, we are fundraising for the community projects that St Peter’s Church is running in the local area.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>These include drug & alcohol rehabilitation courses as well as a much needed meal for the homeless every Saturday evening – to which more than 90 ‘guests’ come along.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">INSPIRED BY</strong> last year’s intrepid forerunners, the number of teams that are signed up for this year’s event has already surpassed the total number that went last year!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Not only this, but we have won the support of local businesses who have given very generously towards this challenge.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Examples of these companies include Brewers (www.brewers.co.uk), Higgidy Pies (www.higgidy.co.uk), and Seraphim (www.seraphim.co.uk).</p>
