I have not used my dragon boat paddle in possibly 13 years! I tried paddling in Toronto, but it was too cold. Paddled in Singapore previously - for fun - about 15 years ago! Happy to be joining a Dragon Boat race for fun this September.

WTW are excited to be taking part in this year’s Ipswich Dragon Boat Race to support Brave Futures, a charity that provides vital support to young survivors of sexual abuse. As a team, we've started a fundraising page to raise as much as we can for their life-saving work. Every penny we raise will help fund specialised support and a safe space for children and young people who have experienced trauma.

This race isn’t just about competition—it’s about standing together against child sexual abuse and showing survivors that they are not alone. By sharing our fundraising page, we hope to inspire our friends, family, and colleagues to get behind this important cause.

With your help, we’re aiming to exceed our fundraising goal and continue supporting Brave Futures in their mission to create brighter, safer futures for those who need it most. Thank you for your support—it means the world to us and to the children and young people who rely on Brave Futures!
