🚍 Swapping Wheels for Paddles. 16 Stagecoach colleagues. One dragon boat. One incredible cause.

Raising money for Newcastle Hospitals Charity

Newcastle Dragon Boat Race 2026 · 26 September 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

Newcastle's Dragon Boat Race is an annual event hosted by NE1 to raise money for charity whilst having a fun-filled day and bringing the community together. This year funds raised will go towards supporting the Sir Bobby Robson foundation.

Story

We're used to steering buses, not dragon boats... but for one day, 16 Stagecoach superstars are swapping wheels for paddles to support the incredible Sir Bobby Robson Foundation.

Every donation helps fund life-changing cancer research and treatment for patients across the North East and beyond. Sir Bobby called the Foundation his legacy, and we're proud to play our small part in helping that legacy continue.

Please support our team if you can - every pound, every paddle stroke and every cheer from the riverbank will help make a real difference.

Thank you!

Stagecoach North East. We've got you.
