Lady Eleanor Holles and Hampton Schools Sponsored River Row 2018

Twitter: #RiverRow2018

Over the weekend of 22-23 September, the Lady Eleanor Holles and Hampton School rowing squads, along with a number of their parents, will be rowing down the Thames from Radley near Oxford to our Millennium Boathouse in Hampton.

This is a significant undertaking and a real challenge: 120+ rowers, 20 or more boats, covering 80 miles and going through 28 locks.

We've all joined together to raise money for our local charity Shooting Star Chase, which provides invaluable hospice care for babies and children with life-limiting conditions. We're aiming to raise enough to pay for a care nurse for an entire year - see our team target on the right.  Your donations will make a massive difference to the lives of the children they support.

In 2015 we raised over £50,000 - please help us make this year's row really count too!
