We've established a minimum fundraising target of $5000 for each team member. Surpassing this goal is not only encouraged but commended – exceeding the minimum demonstrates exceptional commitment to our cause. While we've set a baseline, we encourage participants to aim higher, recognizing that every additional dollar contributes significantly to our shared objectives.

For those who may face challenges reaching the minimum, rest assured that we understand the diverse circumstances of our participants. We value the effort and dedication you put into fundraising, and as long as you're making your best attempt, we consider it fair and commendable.

Understanding that fundraising can be a complex task, we want to offer comprehensive support. If you find yourself in need of guidance or strategies to enhance your fundraising efforts, don't hesitate to approach any of our experienced BE team members. We are committed to providing personalized assistance to ensure each participant feels empowered to make a meaningful contribution to our collective goals.

Before embarking on this unique expedition, participants should have confidence in their physical capabilities. It's important to emphasize that an expedition is not a walk in the park. In addition to our group training sessions in Singapore, participants are required to undertake individual preparations. If there are any uncertainties due to medical conditions, we strongly recommend seeking clearance from your family doctor first.

This expedition stands apart from typical holidays or guided tours as it is purposefully designed to test and stretch your limits, exposing you to extreme conditions in support of charitable endeavors. Upon being selected as part of the expedition team, the Beyond Expeditions team will organize several rigorous training sessions aimed at preparing both your body and mind for the upcoming journey. During this phase, our expedition leaders will assess your fitness level and adapt the expedition's pace to ensure we collectively attain our goals effectively. As part of our commitment to the success of the expedition, we would require 80% attendance for this group training too, as it is highly important to the success of the expedition and also essential for team members to build camaraderie.

Our Beyond Limits Expedition welcomes participants aged 16 years and above. While the minimum age requirement is 16, we encourage thoughtful consideration of your child's comfort with the outdoors. It's important to respect your child's preferences, and we recommend engaging in a conversation with them to ensure that the decision aligns with their interests and comfort level.

During the expedition, the Beyond Expeditions team will take the lead in executing the plan and making necessary adjustments promptly. Our team leaders are well-trained and have led expeditions multiple times, bringing a wealth of experience to ensure a safe and enriching journey. Local support crew which comprises our experienced guides with support vehicles will play a crucial role in providing essential support, ensuring the well-being of all participants and facilitating our successful completion of the expedition.

To enhance safety and coordination, team leaders will be appointed within the group, each leading a 'pod' consisting of 5-7 members. Your team leader will work closely with our overall-in-charge, Scott, to ensure the safety and smooth operation of the expedition. If you prefer to go solo or take an independent approach, this adventurous journey might not be the right fit for you.

Before the expedition, all participants undergo a comprehensive pre-expedition briefing to ensure thorough preparation. This includes a detailed overview of the entire journey, anticipated challenges, and a comprehensive itinerary, leaving no aspect unaddressed. Additionally, a comprehensive expedition deck will be sent to all confirmed participants, covering essentials such as apparel, gear, and other important details.

At Beyond Expeditions SG, our expedition leaders are equipped with Garmin inReach satellite phones to ensure uninterrupted communication in remote regions. The contacts of the participants’ next of kin will be keyed into our satellite phones prior to the expedition. It's important to note that the effectiveness of satellite phones can be influenced by weather conditions (such as cloudy or overcast skies and snowstorms) and terrain (especially in forested areas), resulting in varying signal strength.

Several participants in our Beyond Limits Expeditions have direct or indirect connections to the cause we are supporting. This presents a valuable opportunity for meaningful interactions, fostering bonds, especially during the extended duration of the expedition.

If you're eager to engage further or have specific plans in mind, please reach out to us. We're more than willing to facilitate additional opportunities for interaction, and we can coordinate with the relevant charity organizations to make it happen.

As a fundamental practice, it is vital that we show respect for the local culture and environment. This can be achieved by acquainting ourselves with traditional customs, following them diligently, observing the behavior of the locals and emulating it, and asking for guidance when in doubt. In alignment with our commitment to environmental preservation, our goal is to maintain the pristine and untouched nature of the area, incorporating the principles of "Leave No Trace" etiquette. Adhering to guidelines such as packing up all our trash and minimizing disruptions to wildlife and natural surroundings are exemplary rules to adhere to. For more information on the cultural practices of each country, you can refer to their dedicated pages on our website.

In the event of an emergency requiring your departure halfway through the trip, we will assist in facilitating your return journey home as quickly as possible. As per the agreement stated in the Terms and Conditions, all associated costs will be the responsibility of the participant. We strongly recommend obtaining comprehensive travel insurance to cover such unforeseen circumstances. If needed, we are happy to provide a travel memo to support you in the claims process with your insurance provider.

Losing your passport is the last thing you want to happen on any of your travels. In the event of such an occurrence, promptly contact ICA for assistance or make an online report here of the lost passport. You may then apply for a Document of Identity (DOI) here to enable you to return to Singapore. It is strongly advised to exercise utmost care to avoid misplacing your passport, given the complexities involved in navigating this process during your travels.

It is your responsibility to diligently care for and safeguard your gear and apparel during the expedition. We strongly recommend preparing backups, particularly in the challenging environment of an expedition. While the BE team will make efforts to assist, it's crucial to note that any claims for lost or damaged items will be processed through your personal travel insurance. Ensure your coverage is comprehensive to address any unforeseen situations.
