Story

I started rowing three years ago at University and loved it so much that I wanted to carry on after I graduated so I recently joined Lea rowing club! I absolutely love the club because it gives me the opportunity to train and race and everyone there is lovely! 

However the club is at risk! The lease is up for renewal and money needs to be raised to improve the boathouse in order for us to get the new lease!

So in order to raise money, the Lea girls have decided to organise a sponsored row from Lea to Henley over the course of three days- that's over 100km! The row will take us from Twickenham, Hampton Court, Walton, Maidenhead and just past Henley!

I'd be very grateful if you could spare a couple of pounds to this great cause as if the club was to lose the lease there would be a lot of unhappy rowers and the community would not be the same!

It's going to be a tough long row but hopefully an enjoyable and worthwhile one! Please donate :)
