​I've enjoyed a lifetime in and on our seas and rivers. I know how much this has helped me and others and also how important clean seas and rivers are for all of us and the whole of nature itself. Our wellbeing depends on healthy seas and rivers! That is why I am supporting Surfers Against Sewage by kayaking, solo, around mainland Britain in the Spring and Summer of 2026. This may take me 4-5 months and over 4000km!

Surfers Against Sewage's mission is to unite, empower, and support individuals in protecting the ocean and all it makes possible. We are a community dedicated to safeguarding oceans, waves, beaches, and rivers. Through community action and campaigning, , they fight to end sewage spills, plastic waste, and environmental destruction. Donations directly support their efforts to hold polluters accountable, push for stronger environmental laws, and empower local communities to protect their waters.
