Join us for the 10th OSCAR Dragon Boat Race on Thursday, September 11th, 2025!

This year marks the Baltic Exchange’s fourth consecutive entry into the OSCAR Dragon Boat Race, and we’re back with two teams ready to paddle hard and compete with heart!

Last year was an absolute blast, and we are excited to be part of this incredible event once again. The race isn’t just about speed and teamwork on the water, it’s about coming together to support a cause that’s close to our hearts: the OSCAR Campaign at Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children (GOSH).

The OSCAR Campaign has already raised over £2.5 million, funding pioneering treatments for children with rare and life-threatening immune disorders. It’s named after Oscar Parry, son of Spinnaker Chairman Phil Parry, whose life was saved thanks to groundbreaking care at GOSH. Oscar endured two types of leukaemia, over 100 blood transfusions, five brain haemorrhages, and five years of chemotherapy – and today, he’s 24 and thriving.

This year, we’re aiming to raise £5,000, and we’d love your help to get there. Every donation, big or small, helps us move closer to saving more lives. Let’s make this year’s race our most impactful yet. Thank you for supporting the OSCAR Campaign and cheering on the Baltic Exchange teams!
