Get Busy Rowing

Ocean Rowing UK September 2024

In September 2024 the team gathered in Burnham-on-Crouch to get some time rowing on the ocean. Burnham is a small town on the Crouch River near Clacton in Essex, UK. That was the plan anyway, on the first day the winds were too strong, but we got there in the end! The team rowed down the river to the North Sea and across the estuary to Clacton. Of course, in the Atlantic, you take whatever weather conditions you get.

In late 2025, our team will compete in the “World’s Toughest Row” from La Gomera in The Canary Islands to Antigua in The Caribbean, battling strong winds and waves of up to 60ft in aid of The Matt Hampson Foundation

We are going to row across the Atlantic. Yes, you read that right, the four of us are going to row 3,000 miles from La Gomera in the Canary Islands to Antigua totally unassisted as part of the 2025 World's Toughest Row Atlantic. We are raising money for The Matt Hampson Foundation and The Essex and Herts Air Ambulance Trust.

So far, we have been totally self-funded and have purchased our boat, Pamela. We still have to raise funds to get us to the starting line and are asking you to help us. Please donate if you can to help us on this adventure of a lifetime.
