Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Support Chemmy and the British Team

Donation to support our athletes in their time of need
We all know how our ski team has been let down by the official body - let's see what our unofficial body can do to help ;-) They need funds to get them to the end of the season - Chemmy is the first British female to make it to the alpine world cup finals: she needs to know we're behind her!
P&P: £0.00

Quantity: GBP 10.00

Donate in multiples of £10 please - obviously, to donate £20 select a quantity of '2'

The response on this topic has been brilliant and snowHeads should feel very proud of themselves!
Aside from the promises of cash above, there are also two vehicles that have been made available.
I've been chatting to Chemmy, her coach and Dougy Crawford of the men's team over the past couple of days and I think we have a plan forming.

Basically we have a really serious vehicle for the girls that should save them a load on van hire.
We're looking at the total funding gap re. getting Chemmy with her proper support crew to the World Cup Finals (First British Woman ever AFAIK) and once that's secure we can hopefully start diverting some towards the men's team, which is in just as dire need.
Chemmy was saying that the guys had been driving vans given them to use by SSGB when they were suddenly told that they were definitely not insured and the vehicles may have been reported stolen Shocked

First approximations though suggest that to get Chemmy her physio and cover accommodation and fuel costs to the end of the season we're looking at about £3500.
Still - we're up to about £1200 promised already - that's very impressive!

Payments: Don't worry, we'll run the payments through the snowAccounts system so you can pay via paypal, cheque, bank transfer or readies in a brown paper bag round the side of cash converters, as preferred.

On the up side paypal are charging us 1/2% lower than their normal rate currently due to high turnover last month.
Some people consider the charges worth paying for the convenience while others consider them worth making an effort to avoid - that's why we offer the other payment options even though it's more hassle at this end Little Angel
However you choose to make the payment, I will pass on whatever we get.

I would love too help Chemmy, but the way my work has dried up recently and with 3 children at Uni, I just can't Justify it.

She has my support though.

As promissed I've given the £50 Admin owed me to the fund, it would have only gone towards paying for a ski trip that I can't afford this year anywway, so I'd rather it went towards Chemmy than just carried on sitting in my snowaccount

JK, early bird catches the worm wink Just a quick play and wanted to check any copyright issues so I took it down again. That was just straight code so needed manual updating but with a bit of script I think it could be linked to the Paypal donations. Whether anyone has time to do that is another matter Toofy Grin

I must be mad .. cant even agree with my own views (ie that we should be investing in the mid-term future of Snowsports ie kids). However, even if British Skiing as a Sport may need a Root and Branch review ( ie an effing great kick up the back bottom), I think it would be great to try and help our skiers see out the season properly. I'm in.

this is a great effort, and I would love to donate money but am not in a position to. I've offered the Easimobile though, I do suspect that it would cost too much to run, and be too old to be of any interest and haven't heard, so assume a no. Sad

Now look what you've done to me... I got so swept up in the moment that after making my "Chemmy" payment I came over all gushy and sentimental (and blame the half bottle of chianti) and ended up resubscribing to snowheads on an annual basis after lazily letting my membership lapse.
