This year WivGigs Rowing Club in Essex took part in the Great River Race along with 243 other boats in our Gigs, Varuna and Audacity. A challenging 21.6 mile rowing race open to all sorts of craft from Millwall to Richmond on the River Thames in London. We completed it in 2hr52mins and 3hrs7mins. Every year we use it as an opportunity to raise money for a charity close to our hearts. This year we are raising money to support the excellent work of Birth Companions. £25 buys a hospital bag of essentials for a woman to take with her in labour. £50 pays for a volunteer's travel etc when supporting a woman in labour. We would love to reach our target so make our blisters worthwhile!
