<h1>Sponsors</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>As increasingly impoverished students make up a large proportion of the
|
|
expedition, which is very far from a "cheap holiday", we are grateful for the
|
|
sponsorship we have received over recent years, largely in the form of Food.
|
|
Here we detail those who have supported the expedition & how. We also
|
|
receive monetary support from a number of grant-giving bodies.
|
|
|
|
<p><h3>Our 1997 sponsors were:</h3><BR>
|
|
Food:<BR>
|
|
<dl compact>
|
|
<dt>Barts Spices<dd>Spices and cash: Student cuisine is apt to be monotonous
|
|
unless livened up a little, so a selection of spices is essential to keep us
|
|
all sane.
|
|
|
|
<dt>Campbells<dd>Cooking sauces: Also helps avoid monotony, but especially
|
|
good for producing appetising meals rapidly when more folk come down to
|
|
base camp than expected.
|
|
|
|
<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 & cave food.
|
|
|
|
<dt><a href="http://www.thorntons.co.uk">Thorntons plc.</a><dd>Special Fudge:
|
|
Yummy, very high energy and remarkably cave-proof cave food for a faster
|
|
boost to flagging cavers.
|
|
|
|
<dt>Wander Ltd.<dd>Ovaltine Options drink: Excellent instant drink, both
|
|
chocolate and choc'n'mint much appreciated at both top and base camps.

Equipment:<br>
|
|
<dl compact>
|
|
<dt><a href="http://www.aleph1.co.uk/">Aleph1 Ltd.</a>
|
|
<dd>Expeditions have come some way since the days of candles in jam jars, and
|
|
CUCC uses computers for the cave surveying and documentation (ie. this
|
|
website). Aleph1 loaned the expedition PC, as well as providing workshop
|
|
facilities for a variety of other gizmos such as radios and GPS units.
|
|
|
|
<dt>Nikwax<dd>Wax for boots: Cavers don't just use wellies: leather boots
|
|
take some hammer on repeated walks-in to the plateau in typically wet
|
|
expo weather. Nikwax helps repel some of that and avoid trench foot.
|
|
|
|
<dt><a href="http://www.terra-nova.co.uk/">Terra Nova Equipment</a>.
|
|
<dd>Tents: With people constantrly moving between Base and Top Camps, expo
|
|
needs more cloth houses than people. The discount provided on these was very
|
|
useful.<br>
