<h1>Sponsors</h1>

<p>CUCC have received much sponsorship over recent years, largely in the form
of Food. Here we detail those who have supported the expedition &amp; how. We
also receive monetary support from a number of grant-giving bodies

<p><h3>Our 1996 sponsors were:</h3><BR>
Food:<BR>
<dl compact>
<dt>Morning Foods<dd>Mornflake oats: tradition holds that you will have an epic if the porridge doesn't thicken, so a foolproof product is essential. The empty tins have a multitude of uses, and the full ones are good to sit on !
<dt>Schwarz<dd>Spices: Student cuisine is apt to be monotonous unless livened up a little, so a selection of spices helps keep us all sane.
<dt>Sharwoods<dd>Noodles: After a hard trip, cavers want food quickly without using too much gas. Noodles are the fastest form of hot carbohydrate, and far superior to soggy rice.
<dt>Shepherdboy<dd>Sunflower bars: A good mix of simple and complex
carbohydrate to keep energy levels high 'on the hoof'
<dt>Smithkline Beecham Nutritional Healthcare<dd>Horlicks drink:   Tasty, nutritious instant drinks
<dt>Thorntons plc.<dd>Fudge:   Yummy, very high energy cave food for a faster boost to flagging cavers
<dt>Thomas Tunnock Ltd.<dd>
<a href="http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/~www_sa/socs/tunnock/">Tunnock's
Caramel Wafers</a>:   Very popular, light, high-energy camp &amp; cave food
<dt>Walkers' Nonsuch Ltd.<dd>Toffee:   Robust. very high energy cave food
<dt>Wander Ltd.<dd>Ovaltine Options drink:   Excellent instant drink 
</dl>
Equipment:<br>
<dl compact>
<dt><a href="http://www.terra-nova.co.uk/">Terra Nova Equipment</a>.<dd>Tents:   With both Base and Top Camps, an excessive supply of cloth houses is essential. The discount provided on these was very useful. <b>Warning</b>: their website is framed and unusable on many browsers.
