Dear all, It is with regret that the Raft Race due to take place on Thursday has to be postponed. The Environment Agency has issued a warning about the velocity of the river following heavy rain with more rain due in the coming days. At the moment, the river is flowing downstream faster than our fastest ever rafters can row upstream (about three to four times as fast as most rafts can muster). The Raft Race has been rescheduled to Thursday 13 September 2012. All entries will be honoured for this date. WaterAid is speaking to Justgiving to extend the dates associated with this event. For more information please contact the Raftrace team.
