Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are raising money for the IRFU Charitable Trust who support 36 seriously injured rugby players & Friends of Cross Cancer Research who raise funds for the Trinity St. James' Cancer Institute, two great charities.  

We broke a Rowing World Record in 2019 and now we want to raise even more money by doing a 24 World Record Rowing Attempt.

Please support us and donate as little or as much as you can.

Nigel, Paul and all our rowing Team.

About the charity

The IRFU Charitable Trust supports seriously injured rugby players who have suffered catastrophic injury including severe spinal injury leaving them paralysed and in need of round the clock care, serious head injuries or other life changing injuries. The Trust maintains regular contact with each injured player and their families. We help with locomotory expenses, specialised equipment (such as lifting equipment, beds, or wheelchairs), home alterations, medical expenses, nursing and caring costs, motor vehicles etc. This is not an exhaustive list but it gives an indication of the kind of help provided by the Trust. Over the past few years the average payment for assistance has amounted to about €300,000 per annum. There are 36 players in Ireland supported by the Trust in this way. To fund this assistance the Trust relies upon regular substantial grants from the IRFU itself, together with generous donations and gifts. Thank you for your support, we really appreciate it.
