Budgeting & fundraising

So you want to go on a gap year. How to budget and raise funds for your trip is one of the main things that our customers ask us for advice on.

The basics of budgeting

  • What are you actually spending each month?
  • Where are you wasting money?
  • Be realistic - set a budget and saving plan you can stick to

The basics of fundraising

  • Get as much information about the programme as possible to help persuade people to contribute to your fund
  • Ask Real Gap for a fundraising info pack for ideas
  • Contact the local press to drum up some interest

For more detailed advice on how much money you will need, how to raise funds, claiming tax back and travelling on a budget, take a look at the links below. If you would like to talk to a travel adviser about planning a trip to suit your budget, call us on 01892 516164 or request a call back.
