I will be taking to the high seas with 15 other able rowers to row from Ramsgate in the UK - Nieuwpoort in Belgium, 56 nautical miles. We will be in an 8 person boat and it is likely to take 15-20 hours.

I am doing this to raise money for Age UK.  Credit Suisse staff will be supporting Age UK as our UK Charity of the Year for 2018.

1.2 million older people are chronically lonely. Loneliness can be devastating, it causes depression, increases the likelihood of strokes and heart attacks by a third and doubles the risk of Alzheimer’s disease.

With Credit Suisse’s support, Age UK will help over 30,000 older people by offering vital advice, support and friendship.
