WE MADE IT.
The event finished at 17:48 yesterday approx 11 hours after we started. An awesome day.
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor us online.
Having experienced the effect of the Boxing Day Tsunami first hand the need to help is strong.
When my family and I were in need, the Sri Lankan people helped us, now I want to help them by raising funds for .
The Disaster Emergency Committee.
WITH SOME FRIENDS I PROPOSE TO ROW THE 1,674KM FROM BANDA ACEH (EPICENTRE) TO GALLE (MY BUNGALOW) AND ESTIMATE THAT WE CAN DO THIS IN A RELAY IN 140 HOURS.
Concept has supported this huge challenge by providing us with 15 indoor rowing machines (don't worry we are not going out to sea) and we plan to row in slots of 10 or 30 minutes. Anyone who wishes to row for longer is very welcome. If you can participate in this record breaking event, by rowing as many or as few slots as you like, getting your friends to row, pledging cash or providing any other help or support, please let me know at robert.tighe@tesco.net
The extravaganza takes place on 5th March 2005 at the Silverwing Lake, Wraysbury, Middx, TW19 5AQ. M25 Junction 13
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Disasters Emergency Committee will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
So please sponsor me now!
Many thanks for your support.
