The Back-Up Trust - Dragon Boat Racing, London Docklands · 4 September 2008 ·

Back Up services include mentoring, wheelchair skills training and activity courses as well as support in getting back to work or school after an injury. We provide peer led tailored support to help people adjust to a spinal cord injury and inspire independence and confidence for a positive future.

Story

Channel4's IT and New Media department have entered a team into a dragonboat tournament.  We will race against other companies with a minimum of two race heats for each team. The four fastest teams then battle it out in the Grand Final for our coveted trophy!  It starts at 18:30 at Canary Wharf Docks on the 4th September.

Back-Up exchanges hospitals for lakes and mountains, wheelchairs for boats and skis and frustration and anger for achievement and fun by running a year round programme of activity courses that are challenging events for able bodied and spinally injured people.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: The Back-Up Trust 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 us now!  We hope to raise over £3000 for Backup. 

Many thanks for your support.
