This summer I will be attempting to set a world record to row 2000 miles non-stop around the coast of Great Britain. Before this year I'd never set foot on a boat before!

I'm hoping to raise a bundle of cash for MIND and RNLI

This is w​​​​​​​​​​​​​​idely regarded as one of the toughest endurance ocean rowing challenges on the planet. Circumnavigating the British Isles in a 7 metre rowing boat involves navigating the worlds busiest shipping lanes, dangerous tidal currents and the bitterly cold North Sea, whilst carrying all the supplies required to survive the journey onboard. I will be stopping only to eat, sleep and shelter from any storms, I'll not be stepping back on dry land until the challenge is over.​​

Due to the way Just Giving is set up, a crowd funding page is the best way to raise money the two chosen charities. (Mind & RNLI).

99% of the donations that I receive will go direct to the chosen charities,

1% will go to help towards the cost of the row.
