Our Story
We are a pair of lifelong friends who met at school in Cornwall over 20 years ago.
Based and now reunited in London we have been looking for our next challenge, so naturally decided it made sense to hop in a rowing boat and cross 3,000 miles of open Atlantic ocean.
But more importantly, it gave us an opportunity to raise money for Fredericks Foundation. An incredible charity which focuses on funding social enterprises to make a positive impact on society. The work they’ve done with organisations such as Clink and Carefreespace are a brilliant testament to this and our hope is by undertaking this monumental challenge we can help continue their great work.
We’re incredibly excited to be involved in The World’s Toughest Row - The chance to push our limits, make a positive impact in other peoples' lives and embark on an amazing adventure we will undoubtedly dine out on for the rest of our lives.
Cheers to that.
