Story

All Hands Volunteers are doing a fantastic job in supporting families hit by the two devastating earthquakes in Nepal. Although we aren't on the ground rebuilding homes, schools and hospitals we can at least pick up a paddle and try our best to Kayak 75 km, 18 Bridges and16 Locks from Wallingford to Windsor in 24 hours.

We aren't the greatest sportsmen, after all kayaking the pond at Center Parks proved challenge enough. So whilst we aren't running Marathons, Cycling Europe or free diving the deepest oceans we are at least challenging ourselves in a feat to help others.

Put your hand in your pocket, give up the 10th Jaggerbomb of the night, the extra shot of Tequila or the final pint of the weekend and put your money towards supporting All Hands Volunteers rebuild lives. After all, life is way better than a hangover.
