On August 8th we will launch from Reading and row a 100km stretch of the Thames to the historic town of Richmond over two days with a nights camp in the middle. On the way we will pass new towns and old castles, Victorian water works and under four motorways.

This absolutely gruelling challenge is all in aid of Cancer Research UK

Cancer Research UK

This event is to raise funds for Cancer Research UK.I won't go into to much depth here on the reasons why we have chosen this particular charity. But I will say this:

The statistics tell us that 1 in 3 people in the UK will have their lives affected by cancer. It feels like much more than that.This is an unacceptable blight on our society and anything we can do to stop it should be done. You can be part of the solution. All you have to do is put your hand in your metaphorical pocket.

Whether it's you or someone close to you that's been affected, you know the effect this tragedy can cause.Cancer Research UK fund scientists, doctors and nurses to bring an end to cancer. Each step they make towards beating cancer relies on every pound donated. Their policy development team develops evidence-based policy to inform Government decisions related to cancer and cancer research.

We can help them beat cancer sooner. Do I need to say more?
