Story

Thanks for visiting our page!

This year, on xmas day Ness, Jess and Elisa along with friends will be donning their best Santa gear and will set sail along the Regent's canal. 

The sleigh wasn't available and the reindeers are otherwise occupied so it's the inflatable dinghy instead. We will be padding 4 miles on xmas morning to raise money for the Hackney Foodbank. Our boat full of gifts and classic Christmas tunes. 

Hackney Foodbank are a great charity, aiming to achieve no less than a hunger-free Hackney, where everyone can afford to eat. They support people who are in crisis or trapped in poverty with compassion and dignity by providing emergency food parcels, which offer practical, immediate relief in moments of crisis alongside connecting people with local organisations who can help them to address the root causes and wider effects of poverty in their lives.

Every little helps and your donations will make such a difference no matter how big or small. If you can't donate come watch us paddle on your xmas morning stroll. 

We will update you soon with our departure time and route!
