Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

We are a Ladies rowing crew that have entered for the Row Britain Challenge 2013 to raise funds for Cancer Research UK to assist in the charity’s fight against cancer.  We all have friends and family who have been affected by cancer. We start out from Tower Bridge, London on 1 June 2013 with the aim of beating the current women’s world record of rowing around the mainland of Britain of 51 days, 16 hours and 42 mins.  The row is non-stop and unassisted meaning the crew and all the supplies have to be on the boat as they start off.  We will row 2 hours on, 2 hours off where tides and weather allows 24 hours a day until we arrive back at Tower Bridge, having negotiated major shipping lanes, tides, currents and what ever the weather can throw at us.

 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
