Join the 100 club

Our aim is to raise £100,000 for our charity partners during the row. To make that happen we need to raise £82,000 to cover the cost of the challenge. We are inviting friends and family to become part of the 100 club by donating £100 to help us get to the start.

All donations contribute directly towards the cost of getting the crew to the start line. All money raised above this cost will be split between our charity partners.

Do I have to donate £100?

No!

As an individual we realise £100 is a lot to ask for, and we would be grateful for any any amount you are able to give, every little helps. Equally, if you would like to give more that £100 we would be happy to take that off your hands too!

If you are a small business looking to make a donation why not join our £250 club?
