Story

Dear friends, family and other awesome people,

We will be dragon boat (fund)racing on June 28th in memory of a truly inspirational colleague of ours - Acer Nethercott. Before joining our company, Acer was a successful sportsman, leading the British rowing team to Silver in the Beijing Olympics in 2008. Sadly, Acer lost his battle with cancer in January 2013.

Please support our fundraising efforts for Cancer Research UK and donate now. We promise to win the race!

Ah yes, you may wonder about our team name. In 1963, "Devil(s) in Disguise" by Elvis became a #1 hit in the UK. In the same year, BCG - the company for which we race on a daily basis - was founded. Naturally, that leads to a dragon boat full of devils wearing low-cut shiny suits.

Team members: Aymen, Ben, Eleonora, Frank, Jane, Louis, Louise, Martin, Mukthir, Nick, Same, Shuja, Sophie, Shaan, Steinar, Susanne and Tomas
