Story

Nicky was a keen rower and much loved member of Fishguard and Goodwick rowing club., she was racing just 6 months before she lost her battle with cancer in 2013.

In memory of Nicky I would like to raise the funds to buy a new boat for the club which will be named after her and be known as 'NICKY'

'Nicky's Boat' will benefit the Rowing club hugely by broadening the rowing experience and enabling more people of all ages to take up the sport and compete in this category of sea rowing.

I would love to think of 'Nicky's spirit' living on in the freedom of this boat, and look forward to organizing a launching party in May 2019!

Thank you for your generosity! xxx

Hey, all you lovely people, we are doing really well thanks to your amazing generosity! We have now been able to order the boat, and I am organizing a launching party on the 11th May 2019 at Fishguard Yacht Club, Lowertown, Fishguard. There will be some food, hopefully music, and it will be a great chance for everyone to have a good catch up and celebrate 'Nicky' I look forward to welcoming you all, and will send more info nearer the time. Lots of love, Ed

If people remind us of flowers; Nicki's eyes would be delphiniums of the deepest blue, And her lovely sunny smile would be the brightest yellow sunflower. May her spirit fly forever! Love Lainey xx
