Dear Friend

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page for CLIC Sargent.

On 21st June, Miranda and I embarked on the greatest challenge we have ever had to face - The Round Britain Offshore Powerboat Race.  www.roundbritainrace.co.uk  We were the only all-girl crew in the revival of the world's toughest offshore powerboat race.  Starting from Portsmouth on Midsummer's Day, June 21st, we joined a fleet of 50 high powered vessels spearing westward on an eight leg, ten day charge around the coast of Britain.

This was a huge endurance race with some legs well over 200 nautical miles through some extremely difficult seas.  We were amateurs racing against the best. However, with fantastic support from Scorpion RIBs www.scorpionribs.com, Dubois Naval Architects www.duboisyachts.com and Duncan Hamilton & Co www.duncanhamilton.com, together wih excellent training, we not only made it round but came 12th overall. We were very fortunate to be racing a 10m Scorpion RIB with twin 315 hp diesel inboard engines.  She is a fantastic machine; fast, safe, beautiful and comfortable. 

Read about our amazing journey around Britain on my blog http://sarah-fraser.blogspot.com/

We are raising funds and awareness for CLIC Sargent www.clicsargent.org.uk , the UK's leading children's cancer charity. 

CLIC Sargent was chosen by Team Scorpion Dubois to follow on the support given by the Dubois Cup, first held in 2007 in Palma,Mallorca.  Considerable sums were raised at that event for the charity and Team Scorpion Dubois wish to follow on from that success.

Ed and Honor Dubois have been very impressed by the work of CLIC Sargent because of personal experience with one of their own children and have seen at first hand how many families struggle to cope often over many years when a child is going through treatment.  CLIC Sargent can make a difference between families surviving this ordeal or not, by offering support both in hospital and at home. 

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: CLIC Sargent 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.

Thank you for supporting CLIC Sargent.
