Get ready to paddle, cheer, laugh, and possibly get a little bit splashed at the Agents Giving Dragon Boat Race 2026 on 7th June 2026!
This year we’re heading to the beautiful Stratford Upon Avon Boat Club for a day filled with friendly competition, team spirit, and unforgettable moments shared with agents, suppliers, friends, and family. One of the biggest highlights in the Agents Giving calendar, the river will come alive with cheering crowds, flying paddles, and teams rowing their hearts out for truly incredible causes.
We’d also love you to come along and support our team, For Sail— a brave crew of paddling legends, enthusiastic amateurs, and loud supporters who may not have perfect technique, but will certainly be giving it everything they’ve got!
Most importantly, every paddle stroke, cheer, donation, and moment of support will help raise funds for Magic Moments Children’s Charity and the Agents Giving Grant Fund, supporting charities and community causes across the UK.
For more than 30 years, Magic Moments Children’s Charity has been creating unforgettable memories for children from supported hospices and their families. Having raised more than £1 million, the charity provides magical trips to Disneyland Paris, giving families precious time together away from hospitals, treatments, and everyday challenges.
For some families, these trips offer rare moments of joy and togetherness during incredibly difficult times, including families who have recently experienced bereavement. The comfort, support, and lifelong memories created through these experiences are truly invaluable.
Beyond the trips, the charity also provides essential equipment, hoists, electrical appliances, and toys for children’s hospices across the country. Today, Magic Moments supports 13 hospices located close to the company’s branch network, allowing colleagues to see first-hand the real difference their fundraising makes in local communities.
So whether you’re racing, donating, cheering from the riverbank, or simply coming along to soak up the atmosphere, you’ll be helping create magical memories and meaningful support for families who need it most.
Bring a picnic, bring the family, and make a full day of it — spectators are completely free, and the atmosphere promises to be unforgettable! 🚣☀️
