Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Oliver Stanley and I are preparing for the 540-mile Biscay Challenge yacht race from the Solent to northern Spain. 22 yachts are due to cross the start line in the Solent on June 13th for an offshore race which will take us down the English Channel to pass Ushant and the Chaussée de Sein, then south across the Bay of Biscay to Hondarribia, a Spanish port in the heart of the Basque country. The race with just 2 people aboard each yacht, is expected to take 4 days but all yachts need to reach Hondarribia by mid-afternoon on Friday, June 19 to be classified among the finishers. We plan to be there!

Please sponsor me on behalf of  the Seven Springs Foundation. Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Seven Springs Foundation gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

Wish me luck and thank you so much for sponsoring me.
