Hi Friends, Fam and fellow runners!

I am heading back to the London Landmarks Half this year to raise funds for the London Otters. 

The Otters are a fantastic group that has been a real mental and social lifeline for me over the last few years. 

We’re an LGBTQ+ inclusive rowing group that is down in the docks in East London every weekend. It’s Rowing but it’s also building a safe space for everyone.

It’s not the first time I’ve asked y’all to reach into your pockets so appreciate any penny you have to spare to help us grow as a group and grow our voice as we try and shine a bright light of tolerance and openness at a time when a lot of the world (and sometimes a lot closer to home) would much prefer we did not exist.

What we want to do this year which you can help us is  more outreach in East London especially with trans youth groups and help improve the diversity of our Pups course (Rowing for beginners). This is alongside helping build (and maintain) a beautiful fleet of boats so we can stay afloat.

Thanks all! 

Loads of love

Sean.

PS: fellow runners for training runs give me a buzz!
