These are the terms and conditions (“Terms and Conditions”) that apply to each third party fundraising event in which you are participating as a fundraiser for the British Heart Foundation, a charity with its registered office at Greater London House, 180 Hampstead Road, London NW1 7AW (“BHF”) (each an “Event”). Participants must agree to the Terms and Conditions before participating in any Event as a fundraiser for the BHF (a “BHF Participant”).
1. The Event
a. The Event is not organised by the BHF but by a third party (“Event Organiser”).

2. Application
a. An individual may apply to be a BHF Participant in an Event as either:

ii. a participant with a guaranteed place from the BHF in the Event (a “Guaranteed Participant”); or
iii. a participant who will apply for the opportunity to be offered a place from BHF in the Event (a “Non-guaranteed Participant”).

3. Participation

c. Each Guaranteed Participant and Non-guaranteed Participant must also register directly with the Event Organiser at least two weeks before the Event Organiser’s advertised registration deadline. BHF reserves the right to withdraw the place of any Guaranteed Participant or any Non-guaranteed Participant if they have not registered with the Event Organiser in accordance with this condition 3(c) and to offer their place in the Event to another applicant. If a Guaranteed Participant or a Non-guaranteed Participant loses their place in the Event under this condition 3(c) then they will not be entitled to any refund of the Registration Fee (as defined below).
d. All fundraising activity undertaken as part of the Event must be for the benefit of BHF only.
