My story

WE DID IT!

Yes, the Communications Management Dragonflies set sail on Sunday June 15th, competing in the Southern Dragon Boat Regatta on the Thames at Marlow, paddling against 38 other teams, raising cash for charity.

We had a fantastic day and are well on the way to hitting our target of £5,000 for Link Community Development which carries out vital work in the most impoverished parts of Africa. See www.lcd.org.uk for full details of the charity's activities.

To see more of us in action just click on any of the photos pictured left and this will take you to our Flickr site. The best way to view is by clicking on slideshow - you can see us in all our waterborne glory!

It's not to late to donate as this page will remain open until the end of year so dig deep. Every pound raised in personal sponsorship will be matched by Communications Management so your money is worth double to us - and to Link!

It's simple, fast and totally secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor us as Link Community Development 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.

Communications Management is celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2008 and we aim to donate £20,000 to Link - £1,000 for each year we have been in business.

Many thanks for your support. The Communications Management Dragon Boat Paddlers! www.communicationsmanagement.co.uk
