On July 1st I will be joining 50+ Salesforce oarsmen & women and salesforce partners aiming to raise over £100k for The Ahoy Centre, a Watersports based Charity changing people’s lives and building life skills through sailing and rowing.
Their primary objective is giving opportunities for disadvantaged and at-risk youths and for disabled people to participate in activities and courses on an equal level.

Our challenge, with the support from the team at Ahoy, is to row 12 boats from our office in Staines to our office in the City at Tower Bridge. In total this is 47km and will require somewhere between 6 and 8 hours in the boat on the day and several more hours at the Osteopath putting our bodies back together. I am very pleased to be committing my body to this challenge and I have already donated £50 for the pleasure. Can I urge you to think about the benefits you can bestow on the beneficiaries of Ahoy's work with disadvantaged individuals and to make a generous donation to my boat's Just Giving page?
