Story

We're taking part in Race The Thames Virtual 2022 - join us to bust the winter blues!

Race The Thames is the annual fundraising event run by London Youth Rowing (LYR). The money raised will be used to help support LYR's work in London and Leeds. LYR's programmes allow young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to take part in rowing, giving them the benefit of participating in the sport and allowing them to fulfil their potential. The gallery below shows the impact LYR's work has for young people.

We will also be supporting The Victoria Foundation, with 50% of the total funds raised to go to their work. The Victoria Foundation’s objectives are very broad, but firmly medical, with the overall aim of transforming lives where there is an opportunity to do so by providing mobility aids and accessible transport and special medical assistance to patients who cannot effort these things themselves and medical toolkit grants and elective bursaries for future generations of doctors.
