Story

Will you take on the Manchester Charity Dragon Boat Challenge in support of our NHS Hospitals across Manchester and Trafford?

The event takes place on Sunday 14th May at Trafford Watersports Centre, Sale. M33 2LX

Enter a team of between 11-17 and battle it out with up to 16 other teams to be crowned Manchester Dragon Boat Champions!

Team work is vital if a fast time is going to be achieved and for this reason, the instructors will give 'on the water' training to help with technique. Over the distance we race (200 meters), fitness is not a key factor! Technique however is because it's a team sprint where team work and timing is everything.

As a charity our mission is simple: to support the excellence in treatment, research and care we provide to our patients each and every day. We want to make a real difference to the people we treat young and old by making sure that they continue to receive the very best treatment in the very best facilities.

Our aim is to raise funds to enhance the services we provide and the care that we give to over 2.5 million patients who use our hospitals every year. Our hospitals provide the highest level of care for both adults and children across the North West and beyond.

Thank you so much for choosing to support Manchester Foundation Trust Charity, it will make a real difference to thousands of patients and is greatly appreciated.
