Video Editor Wanted

6:07pm 12th December 2010 by Rob Smith

Our challenges are pretty cool, there's no denying that, but sometimes photos just aren't enough to get across exactly how much fun they really are.

So we're looking for someone with strong video editing skills (e.g. Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere Pro/After Effects etc.) to work their magic on some of the footage that we have and to turn it in to something special. So if you fit the bill and you fancy earning some extra cash in the run up to Christmas (and beyond) then get in touch!

Update - 14th December - thanks for all the responses, we're now reviewing and making some difficult decisions! Some truly excellent candidates.

Support Section launched

8:05pm 7th December 2010 by Nick Ellison

I'm very happy to announce that we've launched our long awaited Support section of the website, which includes guidance on all manner of practical and website guidance.

Links around the website should now be directing you to relevant help articles and topics, and event pages should be loading in filtered content to their FAQ pages. There's a search function, and a library of "tags" to help you find and view associated information.

No doubt we'll be adding more and more technical content as we go on...

We're going to do our utmost to ensure this content is kept up to date, so that you can always be sure that what you're reading is relevant. Looking forward to hearing all the feedback!

Updated Privacy Policy

6:53pm 6th December 2010 by Nick Ellison

We've just updated our privacy policy, to take into account some of our most recent developments. All registered members of the site will be informed of this change when they next access their accounts.

To summarise the important bits:

  • We'll now be sharing event and challenge participants contact details with their chosen charities by default. The goal is to improve the support of fundraisers from their beneficiary causes, in line with our improved Charity Admin panel.

  • Charity administrators will also be able to access the phone numbers and addresses of their fundraisers. This access is controlled by the Choose a Challenge Information Security Policy.

  • The policy also benefits from changes relating to Facebook access. Access to Facebook account data is strictly controlled by Facebook and by users' application privacy settings.
