My story

 

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

10 Royal Marines and 2 Royal Navy will row 2400km (2.4 million metres or just shy of 1500 miles!) non-stop using 2 Concept II rowing machines.

The event will be held at The Henry Leach Building, Navy Command Headquarters, Whale Island, PORTSMOUTH and will commence at midday on 21st September 2008.  It is anticipated that the distance will be reached by Thursday 24th September (approx 4-5 days of round the clock rowing).

ALL PROCEEDS WILL BE DONATED EQUALLY TO THE CHRIS JONES RIDERS FUND (www.cjnine.com) AND THE ROYAL NAVY AND ROYAL MARINES CHILDREN’S FUND (www.rnrmchildrensfund.org.uk).

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure.  It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: If you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.  So please sponsor us now!
