The race has been run for 7 years raising over £100,000 for Macmillan Cancer support. In 2012 the event raised more than £20,000 for Macmillan in Shropshire which helped appoint a support manager based within the cancer unit at the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital. Hundreds of Shropshire families are also supported with grants to help with basic needs such as fuel bills and car parking at hospital.
The coracle race will see 48 teams of four compete to cross the River Severn and back four times in the shortest time, with many donning fancy dress to embark on the challenge. Whilst enjoying the drama of the racing, there will also be plenty of other entertainment for all ages so why not make it a family day out?Thanks for visiting our team fundraising page.
