I've raised £20000 to support mental health and suicide prevention charities in the UK by rowing the English Channel in May 2022

The ‘Channel Row Challenge’ is a team of individuals taking on the epic challenge of rowing the English Channel (the busiest shipping lane in the world) in aid of mental health and suicide prevention charities in the UK.
The Covid-19 pandemic has had a massive impact on the mental health and wellbeing of individuals across the UK and has resulted in increased pressure on mental health and suicide prevention charities. All money raised from this gruelling challenge will go directly to supporting several charities and initiatives across the UK, including the charities:
- Ripple Suicide Prevention: helping to save lives through online interventions
- Shropshire Mental Health Service (Mind)
Together we can help put an end to suicide and to support those in need right across the UK.
The team:
- Colin Hayton
- Darren Edwards
- Darren Hardy
- Harry Thomas
- Louis Alexander
- Nick Beighton
