    According to this report, some technical staff are used that work on the Tour

    I read the Ts and Cs beforehand and on the registration page it clearly states none of your entry fee goes to charity.

    OK yes but did anyone know that none of the entry money goes to the charity and only after they've sold 4500 tickets do they allow the Charity folk to enter and even then none of their entry money goes to the charity and they have to raise £250 each.

    No, you can still choose to raise money (or not) for the charity when you enter, but apart from the last few places there is no particular amount you need to raise.

    Maybe it is because I have done other charidee events in the past so I already know that the way it works is you pay your entry fee and then you raise money for the charity. It never occurred to me to expect the organisers to do it for free.

    @Min, If I fall short of the £300 target what would Marie Curie do to chase the money
