Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

For some reason which I am still yet to truly fathom we have decided to attempt the following lunacy.....

The Devizes to Westminster International Canoe Race starts in Devizes, Wiltshire and finishing just downstream of Westminster Bridge in central London, opposite the Houses of Parliament. The race has been held annually over the Easter Weekend since 1948.

The race is 125 miles non-stop and has 77 portages. The first 52 miles are along the Kennet and Avon Canal to Reading, the next 55 miles are on the River Thames to Teddington. The final 17 mile section is on the tidal portion of the Thames.

This will hopefullly take us around 22hours meaning a lovely 0900 arrival at Westminster for breakfast on the 20th April if anyone wants to join us(!)

Any donations gratefully received!!
