Raising Money

Vertical Dance were extremely proud to organise the World Record Attempt in 2006. We received a beautiful official certificate to commemorate the event, so this year we would like to offer the official Guinness Book of Records certificate to the school who raises the most money for charity. Last year one school alone raised over
£2,000 so we will be looking to beat this amount in order to qualify.

So fill out the school form to receive your World record membership password to access down load able sponsorship forms, the world record routine and all of the information needed to take part in this prestigious event.


 

Which Charity?

           Once you have returned all of your sponsor money, please email us and we will send you a Vertical Dance certificate  
           of participation. It is the head of the schools responsibility to distribute this to the participants, not Vertical Dance.   
           Please note, we can not guarantee that we will be featured in the record books as there are so many entries per year
           the book is just not big enough, please also be aware that if they do list us it will NOT include everyone’s name that
           took, again the book is just not big enough. Guinness only send 1 official certificate, this will go to the person/school  
           that raises the most money.
