Story
Hey Guys, thanks for stopping by.
In July our group of girls from the London University Royal Naval Unit will be competing in the 24 Peak challenge in the Lake district. Not only will this be physically demanding by racing around the course, we will be putting our minds to the test in navigating where the course actually is.
We're doing this to raise money and awareness for Seafarers UK. This charity is special to us as they look after the people, and families of people, who work on the water that surrounds the UK. Every day we rely on the sea for safety, trade and sustenance, yet it can be a dangerous place to live and work.
Please send some support our way, and some money towards the Seafarers.
