Story
Taylor aged 15 paddles for St. Neots Dragon Boat Team (SNDBT), in addition to her normal regular club training at SNDBT she has been attending British National Training Squad sessions since September 2017 going out in all weathers.
In March she trialled for and successfully gained a place in the Great Britain Under 18 Dragon Boat Squad which will be competing in the European Championships in Germany this year.
Now she has achieved her place in the squad she needs to raise funds to cover travel, accommodation, food, race kit and extra GB kit, such as kit bags, stadium pants, waterproof jackets etc.
In order to help raise these funds she has been delivering a local monthly magazine, is planning on organising a bag pack at the local supermarket and a cake sale at the Rainbows Group that she volunteers at. We are also holding a quiz night.
To help her on her way we have also set up this page for those that are unable to attend the events that are being organised but would still like to help her out.
Anything you can contribute would be hugely appreciated and would go a long way in making this opportunity a fantastic experience for her.
Thank you for taking the time to read her story.

6 years agoWe have a Bronze Medallist in the family. Junior Girls Small boat came 3rd in 500m race. All in all Great Britain came 3rd in the Medal Table across all categories which included Premier, Juniors and Senior Teams across a multitude of distances. It was a very emotional few days and our poor juniors had 1.5hr trip to the race site each day. Which wasn't ideal. So proud of all the kids.

Hi, My name is Lorraine and Taylor is my eldest daughter. We are so proud of the commitment she has shown in training and in her efforts to raise the funds herself. We are hoping this page will give her a little boost to be able to buy the additional GB Kit.
